Dear @JonathanGregory I would not be too insistent on the distinction between 
"file" and "dataset" in (1). The concepts of file and filesystem may be 
obsolescent in the evolution of storage technology (in particular, zarr is 
emerging as a netCDF backend (in the imminent release actually), where 
attributes will be stored in a distinct "object" which may look like a "file" 
on some storage technologies.

Whereas I think "dataset" is not tied to a specific technology. Thanks.
