Hi again everyone,

I'm hoping we might be able to follow up on some of the discussion in 
https://cf-trac.llnl.gov/trac/ticket/142 and implement the proposed standard 
name ensemble_member_label?

ensemble_member_label
units: None (string expected)
A string-value used to uniquely identify members within an ensemble of forecasts

A variable of this type is crucial as a member descriptor for a set of ensemble 
forecast products we will be looking to generate operationally at the Met 
Office. I'm hoping this could perhaps be implemented standalone wrt to some of 
the ticket's other more complex recommendations? Following through the 
discussion on the ticket, adding the suggested standard names 'source' and 
'institution' would also be nice to have's as future-proofing.

Have a very good weekend
Andy
