Should we be importing indices at the top-level?

Setup Information

• Xclim version: 0.44.0
• Python version: Any
• Operating System: All

Context

I've always noticed that when writing scripts dependent on xclim.indices, unless we explicitly import indices we'll get IDE warnings:

This is of course only a warning (I imagine that xclim.indices is implicitly imported via the indicators or Python allows for importing modules that are otherwise not listed within __init__.py).

What I'm wondering is if there is any reason not to import indices on import of xclim.

It's there anyway, so if we can remove warnings by importing it explicitly, I say go for it.
