I see that the netcdf-java API can read GRIB data, which produces nice 
capabilities like the ability to read GRIB into Panoply and (I presume?) TDS.  

Does the netCDF C API have this capability?  (I guess I'm hoping to sneak GRIB 
capability into C/C++ based tools like nco and Hyrax through the API back door, 
so to speak.)

If not, any plans to add this to the C API?
