Research direction

Start by reviewing the proposed xesmf.to_uniform_grid(dataset, method="conservative") API and the stated requirement to support staggered grid datasets. Define the use cases and automatic corner-point inference from dimension names; the issue names no files or tests, so a concrete implementation entry point and completion checks still need to be established.

Description

Our homework was to write down use cases to come up with a useful API.

I would like to eventually see a xesmf.to_uniform_grid(dataset, method="conservative") that would work on staggered grid datasets. This requires automatic inference of corner points given a set of dimension names.
