Parallelisation only happens when future is attached than loaded

Is this an intended behaviour? It took me some time to figure out why future::plan(future::multisession) does not work since the documentation does not require future to be attached. I thought it was something wrong with my future.

fabletools/R/model.R

Lines 27 to 30 in 9794d22

	#' It is possible to estimate models in parallel using the
	#' [future](https://cran.r-project.org/package=future) package. By specifying a
	#' [`future::plan()`] before estimating the models, they will be computed
	#' according to that plan.

Wouldn't it be better to check if the future::plan is future::sequential when future is loaded rather than to check if it is attached? It would be nice to have the option to run it in parallel without ever putting future onto the search path.
