CDO is great if your data is on a lat-lon grid, but on curvilinear grids it has
a tendency to trash the ancillary data. I would not recommend it for something
like Izidor's use.
(At least, that was my experience the last time I used it; possibly it's better
now, but I haven't read anything in the update announcements that leads me to
expect that...)
