I'd like to create an empty DataArray, i.e., one with only NA values. The docstring of DataArray says that data=None is allowed, if a dataset argument is provided. However, the docstring doesn't say anything about a dataset argument. 1. I think there's a bug in the docstring 2. I'd like to pass data=None and get a DataArray with the coords/dims set up properly (as defined by the coords and dims kwargs), but with a values array of NA.
