@JonathanGregory @martinjuckes @ethanrd I don't think there is a reliable way 
to apply the mathematical axis concept to strings, so I'm fine with saying 
**`string x(x)`** and **`char x(x,l)`** cannot be a dimension coordinate 
variable, but I see no reason to say those forms can't be valid auxiliary 
coordinate variables.
