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.
