23 * This class works withe the lookup framework to customize a query. It currently can do the following things:
24 *
25 * <ul>
26 * <li>transform/remove predicates</li>
27 * <li>transform/remove query results</li>
28 * </ul>
29 *
30 * <p>
31 * The predicate transform will applied to the predicates in the incoming query yielding a
32 * a predicate. If the predicate does not need to be transformed then the function can return the
33 * incoming argument. If the predicate should be removed the transform should return null.
34 * This is a way to remove or change a predicate before the query is executed.
35 * This is a good way to add new predicates to a query or to limit the result of the query before
36 * it is executed. Transforms also allow a predicate referencing a property path that does not exist
37 * on database mapped object to be changed to something that is valid.
38 * </p>
39 *
40 * <p>
41 * The result transform will be applied to the results of the query after the query is executed.
42 * If the result does not need to be transformed then the function can return the
43 * incoming argument. This is a way to remove or change a result after the query is executed.

45 *
46 * <p>transformers should not have to deal with null items</p>
