The current implementation of NetcdfPointDataSource uses the

In the next release we are moving
to the new common data model( CDM) work of the Thredds group which will
be based on a
new nc2 package.
Although the current version uses Plain to make the Data
objects, you could open the source as a NetcdfFile also
and fill in the details from that object. Note that
a NetcdfDatasource can point to a set of netCDF files,
so your getFullDescription should account for that.
