> I think it would be handy (for some {{sack()}} work I'm doing on merging/splitting sacks), but also in general as I've wanted this before (can't remember why). I think we should add the following interfaces.
> {code}
> ManyToOneMapping (e.g. reducing barriers)
> OneToManyMapping (e.g. flatmap)
> OneToOneMapping (e.g. map, sideeffects)
> OneToOneOrNoneMapping (e.g. filter)
> {code}
> We can just rely on {{instanceof FlatMapStep}} or {{instanceof MapStep}} as there are steps that are "map steps" but don't extend {{MapStep}}, but instead {{AbstractStep}}. Either we make it so that all steps MUST extend from {{FlatMapStep}}, {{MapStep}}, etc. or we can add the above interfaces.
