Description

Looking for thoughts on how we might want to encode information in Axis managers that aren't aligned along axes.

The main example I have here are units. We'd like a way to track units of signal. But I could also imagine we might want to encode units of other arrays pointing/encoders in particular.

My first two thoughts on options:

  1. make aman['units'] = 'string'
  2. Have some sort of aman._units = {} that keeps track of {'field_name' : unit}
