Couldn't we merge functools and functional into just one (user- visible) module? The distinction between what goes into one vs the other is exceedingly subtle and poor users will be guessing as to what's where. If we need a mixed module with something in C and something in Python, we can do it the usual way, func.py wrapping _func.pyd (or .so or whatever)...
