Selecting time slices of dataset using dataset's own dimension

This might not be the correct place for this issue, but I was somewhat surprised to find that I couldn't use a dataset's own time dimension to index. The sel works as expected when explicitly passing a pandas.datetime object but throws an error (reproduced below) when selecting using the dataset's own time dimension.

Working example

```python import xarray as xr import pandas as pd import numpy as np

ds = xr.Dataset({'example': (['time'], np.arange(0, 15))}, coords={'time': pd.date_range(pd.datetime(2011, 6, 1), pd.datetime(2011, 6, 15), freq='1D')})

This is not an error

ds.sel(time=slice(pd.datetime(2011, 6, 1), pd.datetime(2011, 6, 6)))

This is an error

ds.sel(time=slice(0, 5)) ```

Problem description

I expected to be able to index a dataset using it's own time dimension or the time dimension of another dataset.

I would expect the operation to work like:

Expected Output

```python import xarray as xr import pandas as pd import numpy as np

ds = xr.Dataset({'example': (['x'], np.arange(0, 15))}, coords={'x': np.arange(0, 15)})

Neither of the below fails

ds.sel(x=slice(0, 15)) ds.sel(x=slice(ds.x[0], ds.x[-1])) `` where both operations are identical. I know I could use theisel` method here, but the current behavior was very unexpected.
