Sorry, didn't mean to be unclear. The confusing part is probably (class 
in dolfin.functions)

Agree.

I think this (skipping extracting functions and classes from 
__init__.py) sounds like a sane assumption.

Title:
  Classes are indexed twice in Python Programmer's Reference

Status in DOLFIN:
  New

Bug description:
  
  Python classes are indexed (at least) twice in the Python Programmer's Reference, for instance the index points to the class FunctionSpace in both dolfin.functions and dolfin.functions.functionspace:

    FunctionSpace (class in dolfin.cpp)

        (class in dolfin.functions)
        (class in dolfin.functions.functionspace) 

  Is this intended? If so, it is confusing.
