  Subject: RE: Functions to transform

I would probably use different templates for "name" and "address", but
that's beside the point.
This example takes 2 parameters and returns 1 value. I'm looking at a
situation where I want the function to take the source element, along
with possibly a discriminator of some sort (like your "field"
parameter), and produce a complex value (more than one return value, in
other words). I'm also wondering how this would look in the XSLT
mapper. Ideally, I think I'd like to be able to connect the source
element to the transform, and connect the transform to the element that
contains all the values I want to set (for instance, the target
"Address" structured element), without having to specify links to the
target subelements ("firstname", "lastname", "city", "state", etc.).
