By just writing dolfin.Function instead of dolfin.cpp_Function in
function.py.

In function.py, we import the SWIG-generated module "dolfin":

import dolfin;

This module may then contain a class named "Function" which is the
SWIG-generated wrapper for dolfin::Function (currently named
cpp_Function). We may then define a class named "Function" in the
function.py module, and this is the class that we import in the
top-level __init__.py (not the one from dolfin.dolfin).

Does it make sense?
