arguments not passed to open_groups_as_dict function when opening a datatree

[aladinor]

What is your issue?

Hi everyone,

I am trying to open a datatree I created, which looks as follows.

Group: /
├── Group: /group_0
│   │   Dimensions:  (x: 4, y: 5)
│   │   Coordinates:

However, if I wanted to select and specific groups as follows

path = "/path/to/datatree/hdf_dtree_10.h5"
dtree = open_datatree(path, engine='h5netcdf', group="subgroup_1")

The output is the whole datatree. Digging around. I found out that some parameters passed to

xarray/xarray/backends/h5netcdf_.py

Line 454 in a8c9896

groups_dict = self.open_groups_as_dict(filename_or_obj, **kwargs)

are missing, including the group parameter. A similar situation happens with netcdf4 datatrees
