I've begun work towards this by completing the interface declarations for MPDataSet and MPDatum, and implementing concrete types (MPDataTable, MPRow).
I separated the term value transformer into two: kind of transformations which do not change dimensionality, and the kind described above which I've described as "dimensionality mapping". The former turned out to be much less useful than imagined at first for random forest classification than implementing dimensionality mappers which would also be used with other kinds of learning algorithms, and the second is what is used for mapping the input data into feature space used for model training.
Value transformation for instance to transform data to Z-scores or otherwise translating / scaling values are not necessary because features are independent and not made for instance linear or other combinations of internally when classifying.
I'd say this is done.
