Dear Randy
While I understand why this would be convenient for you, I'm inclined to think
that your convenience would be outweighed by the inconvenience to the users of
the data in this case. I don't expect there is any existing CF-aware analysis
software which would expect to unpack coordinate variables, so the likely
consequence is that the coordinates would be presented to the user as packed
values, which isn't what you intend.
Best wishes

Hi all:
Well, the netcdf-Java library will unpack coordinate variables, so any
applications built with it will also.
If one already knows how to unpack data variables, its not any harder to
unpack coordinate variables.
I guess the question is: what are the CF-aware analysis software that we
know of?
