When part of the grid is a rectilinear grid, we can speed things up considerably

Many curvilinear grids are actually rectilinear over a large part of the globe. For these grids we can optionally specify a set of X and Y 1-D coordinate axes for use in this part of the grid, and then for requests for data in these parts of the globe, the scripts will treat the data as if it is on the rectilinear grid defined by those axes.
