> Currently the local data_source tries to guess lat/lon/time variable names and doesn't allow the user to specify any of them. Dataset loading could be greatly simplified in situations where the user knows the name of the variables they want to use. Allowing explicit names to be provided also helps to reduce the likelihood of complicated datasets loading improperly due to possible name clashes.
