Description
It would be great if the Dataset object could track if a given sidpy.Dataset object has a HDF5 counterpart or not and where one could get it. This way one would know whether and where this Dataset object exists in a file.
The one obvious problem is that x = x + 1 would likely break things since x is no longer the same object that exists in HDF5. We would need to track the state of the Dataset object.

Research direction
Start by examining the sidpy.Dataset object and how it relates to an HDF5 counterpart. Clarify how an object should report whether and where it exists in a file, including what happens after operations such as x = x + 1. Done requires an agreed tracking model and documented behavior for object state changes.
