Far out, man!! ;-)
Seriously, though, I don't see the need for such a device ("...make
the "band" coordinate variable an array of label strings..."). Based
on what Tom Rink and John Caron have said, it looks like defining a
"coordinate axis type" using a few select concepts is the best
approach. We'll see what John as to say about the notion of a simple
index being used as a coordinate variable...and go from there...
