Comment (by rho...@excaliburlabs.com):

 Dave:

 As it turns out, we have come to conclude there is no need for the user
 applications (at least in our use cases) to know the "packed" coordinate
 variable values, but the other rationales still apply.

 I would also tend to believe that there is no need for any user
 application to need to know the packed coordinate variable value because
 of its inherent correspondence with the data variable.

 This topic was also taken up on the CF message board
 (http://mailman.cgd.ucar.edu/pipermail/cf-metadata/2012/055468.html).
 Note that this capability is provided by the netcdf-Java library

 very respectfully,
