I'm imagining transforming one image into another image, or really any Julia object to any other Julia object, so long as the user can think of a use for the ability to do chaining, inverting, etc. While the word `Map` might make sense to linear algebra people, is it a good choice of word for images, sounds, or whatever?"}}
