I agree, but that leads to another question: go where?

Some of the stuff there is clearly redundant and should be removed entirely.

Others I think are functionality that should be merged into numpy, although
whether they would agree I don't know.

Others are useful but I don't know exactly where they could end up.

I think we need to go through on a case-by-case basis and figure out what
to do with each class and function.

I think it would probably be good to do something similar with cbook.  Both
are dumping grounds for largely unrelated functions. At the very least they
should be organized into modules by their purpose, but I do think some
should be dropped or upstreamed.
