Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:5 kcrisman]:
 > So you're saying that a lot of the removed functions aren't imported
 globally?  But you are removing a lot of global imports - where do they
 live instead?
 Most of them can either be called as methods (`a.exp()` instead of
 `exp(a)`) or imported from a different place (usually in `sage.functions`
 or `sage.structure` in the case of `parent()`).

 > I have a feeling that at least for a few of the symbolic ones there was
 a reason for having this last-ditch place for them.
 I don't know what it could be... in any case all doctests pass without
 them.

 > Also, I notice some other cleanup that is not related to this (e.g. in
 monoids), which seems odd.
 I had to move that import to break a cyclic import loop.
