docs: Allows selecting data by the slices, sets and scalar values
          along a particular dimension. The indices should be supplied as
          keywords mapping between the selected dimension and
          value. Additionally selection_specs (taking the form of a list
          of type.group.label strings, types or functions) may be
          supplied, which will ensure the selection is only applied if the
          specs match the selected object.
