Presently, objects can be transformed according to a displacement vector plus a 3x3
matrix.  This is a linear transformation.  However, it would be useful if one could
also do nonlinear transformations.   For example, x -> x * y, or x -> x * (1 + 0.1 *
sin(y)).  I can easily see how this would become hopelessly complex, but it would be
useful.
