Currently, our container types includes the following:

  • OrderedSets
  • LittleDicts
  • Tuples
  • Patterns
  • KeyedArrays / NamedDimsArray

This can make it hard to follow what operations will return what data types, so maybe we can simplify this in someway.
At the very least, we should probably try to minimize how much of this is exposed through the documentation and avoid too many examples of how they interact with other packages like Tables.jl, DataFrames.jl, etc.

I wonder if restricting XArray to KeyedArray(NamedDimsArray(...)) would help as it would simplify some of the type signatures printed to the REPL?
