Comment (by jonathan):

 Sorry, I've made a mistake in the Field construct. I forgot that we have
 agreed the data array is mandatory (in this version of the data model)
 since that is the case in CF 1.5. It should therefore begin:

 Each field construct must contain:

   * An ordered list of zero or more '''domain axis constructs'''.
   * A '''data array''' whose shape is determined by the domain axes in the
 order listed, optionally omitting any domain axes of size one. (It is
 possible to omit domain axes of size one because their position in the
 order of domain axes makes no difference to the order of data elements in
 the array.) If there are no domain axes of greater size than one, the
 single datum may be a scalar instead of an array. If the data array has
 more than one element, they must all be of the same data type, which may
 be numeric, character or string.
 and may optionally contain:

   * An unordered collection of '''dimension coordinate constructs'''.

 etc.
