I didn't like that octave-forge loaded ALL functions after an 
installation either. I do however not mind that all packages are loaded 
by default because I only install the packages I use. This logic does 
however fail in multiuser environments where global packages will be 
loaded for all users. So, perhaps we should autoload local packages and 
not global packages?
