I see, transform() doesn't have the same overload that other methods do in
order to support Java 8 lambdas as you'd expect. One option is to introduce
something like MapFunction for transform and introduce an overload.

I think transform() isn't used much at all, so maybe why it wasn't
Java-fied. Before Java 8 it wouldn't have made much sense in Java. Now it
might. I think it could be OK to add the overload to match how map works.
