I think calc-grab-sum-down and calc-grab-sum-across should be autoloaded.

calc-grab-region and in particular calc-grab-rectangle are autoloaded and the sum down and across functions are (according to the manual) both more convenient and faster than using calc-grab-rectangle for these common functions.

Having emacs autoload them would let other packages bind these commands to keys without having to worry about requiring calc which could take a while to load even if it's not called or constructing their own autoload calls for them in order to prevent users from getting errors.
