I like the idea of bumping the stacklevel in principle, but I am not sure it is all that practical. For example, if a warning came up when doing "x / y", I am assuming that it is emitted from within the ufunc np.divide(). So, you would need two stacklevels based on whether the entry point was the operator or a direct call to np.divide()? Also, I would imagine it might get weird for numpy functions called within other numpy functions. Or perhaps I am not totally understanding how this would be done?

One issue will be how to keep this consistent. `stacklevel` is used so
rarely that new PRs will always omit it for new warnings. Will we just
rely on code review, or would a private wrapper around `warn` to use
inside numpy plus a test that checks that the wrapper is used
everywhere be helpful here?


Yeah, I mean you could add tests for the individual functions in principle.
I am not sure if adding an alias helps much, how are we going to test that
warnings.warn is not being used? Seems like quite a bit of voodoo necessary
for that.

I was thinking something along these lines, but with a regexp checking for warnings.warn: https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/master/scipy/fftpack/tests/test_import.py

Probably more trouble than it's worth though.
