Comment (by hinder):

 I am unhappy about removing a feature like this.  Diagonal HDF5 output is
 useful in some situations (I have used it for black hole lattices, in
 which the diagonal is a special line on which we are very interested in
 the data).  It is not very well supported; most of the metadata is missing
 unfortunately.  I am in favour of reverting the patch and waiting for it
 to be implemented in a way that allows diagonal output to be maintained.
