I believe the aim of the refactor is to *not* change the C-API at all, 
but separate it internally from the routines that do the heavy lifting. 
Externally, Numpy would still look the same, but be more easy to maintain.

The routines that do the heavy lifting could then be good for reuse and 
be more easy to maintain, but I think how and where they would be exposed 
hasn't been discussed so far...
