I think that assumption should be safe. I can add a comment to all __init__.py 
files stating that no classes or functions should be defined there.

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.
