Description
From #134:
Some tracing tells me that wrap_mangling_directives results in NumpyPythonDomain's directives being used to handle py:class, py:function, etc. I find it hard to believe that that's the intention.
Do these domains remain relevant? I can't see any reference to them in the numpy or scipy repositories currently. I see that @pv commented on their likely irrelevance in 2012.

Research direction
Start by tracing wrap_mangling_directives and the NumpyPythonDomain directives that handle py:class and py:function. Check the repository for references to these domains and compare their relevance with the linked NumPy and SciPy usage; done means the obsolete domains are removed or their continued purpose is documented and verified.
