Description

Hi,

I opened this issue in squidpy https://github.com/scverse/squidpy/issues/1061 . In the code we use some functions that aren't in the public API. I think it is good to reuse the functions but if we are going to do this I think it makes sense for them to be exposed. What would you think about exposing all or some of these functions I mentioned in the PR?

Read the linked squidpy issue and its referenced PR first to identify the functions under discussion. Confirm which functions should be public and what API and compatibility expectations apply; done is an explicit agreed subset exposed for reuse.
