530448473 MDU6SXNzdWU1MzA0NDg0NzM= 3583 DataArray.transpose cannot handle Ellipsis 22542812 closed 0     7 2019-11-29T17:51:51Z 2019-12-02T17:13:10Z 2019-12-01T06:17:30Z NONE      

While the documentation about reshaping indicates that an Ellipsis can be used for DataArray.transpose, this is actually not the case:

python def transpose(self, *dims: Hashable, transpose_coords: bool = None) -> "DataArray": if dims: if set(dims) ^ set(self.dims): raise ValueError( "arguments to transpose (%s) must be " "permuted array dimensions (%s)" % (dims, tuple(self.dims)) )

On a site note, as long as transpose_coords defaults to None, it should be at least stated in the doc string that its current default is equal to False.
