Right now we have joiner(), which given several ranges of T, offers a

functions: itemize() and collect().
collect() is sometimes used as the name for map() in some languages
(e.g., Ruby, Smalltalk). I don't think it's a problem but maybe a note
in the documentation would be warranted to point people to map.
Alternatively it could be called something like bundle or parcel.
Love bundle/parcel! Probably bundle more because it's more obvious it's a verb.

Well, both bundle and parcel can be both nouns and verbs.
