Description
When the data sent to the explorer is a large xarray object and options `rasterize` and `datashader` are turned off, the explorer tries to sample the data to reduce its size. However, it only knows how to do so with pandas DataFrames : `df.sample(...)`.
I'm not sure how one would do that "sampling" with xarray objects, but maybe it could raise a clearer error when encountering a xarray `DataArray` ?
