Sometimes at the end of a series of Dask Array computations one has an array of unknown shape. However once the array is computed, it should be possible to know how big each chunk is and thus how big the array is as a whole. It would be nice at this stage to determine the array's shape and possibly even convert the Dask Array into one with known shape. This ends up being pretty important when allocating space for storage.
