No good reason. What's the name? transformfunc?

transformfunc looks... truncated. Why not transformfunction or transfunc? The stdlib commonly uses "func" rather than "function". For example "functools", where partial has an attribute named "func". I suppose it's like "int" vs. "integer".

The same functools has decorating_function() with the user_function argument.

Also find_function, search_function, create_function, isfunction, isgeneratorfunction, from_function, has_function, copy_function, pickle_function, register_function, emit_function, and print_function. This is not counting tests, IDLE and private names.
