The usual intuitive options for this are reduce, zipmap, or into. You can
also write a lazily recursive solution. I wonder why there's no function in
core that lazily re-constructs the map with the results of the function? It
seems to have been discussed on the list at least once or twice. It seems
like there would have to be two versions of it, one expecting a function
with an arity of one (for just the value) and another expecting an arity of
two (key and value).
