Great! Thanks @spencerkclark

I agree this is an excellent work around.

One of the most frustrating aspect of using an otherwise brilliant tool like xarray (and other python packages) is knowing what NOT to try and do. It is otherwise almost magical in the things it does well, so there is something of an expectation that it can and should do everything. If this work-around was part of the official documentation (until shift is implemented) that would be very useful.

I am often in the position of recommending software solutions to scientists who need to analyse their data, and the date issue with xarray (which CFTime has mostly alleviated) always made me hesitant to recommend it whole-heartedly. So thanks for your part in adding this to xarray.
