transform functions?

Hi.

I thought I once found some documentatation describing how to provide
a transformation function
that would change a document before storing it.

I can't for the life of me remember where I found it and google is not
helipng, either.

Does this feature even exist? I'm just about to question my sanity...

It's a fairly new feature, and isn't covered properly by the book yet.
Don't worry, I saw a post claiming that validate_doc_update could modify 
the newDoc var (it can't), and wrote a fairly complex validation 
function predicated on that before I realised otherwise. ^_^
