--- Comment #1 from Sam Weinig <sam at webkit.org> ---
This is a bit tricky to tack onto the existing map due to the order of template arguments:

    template<typename MapFunction, typename R = typename std::invoke_result<MapFunction, const T&>::type> Vector<R> map(MapFunction) const;

The naive approach, to make R an overridable parameter like the following:

    template<typename MapFunction, typename R = Vector<typename std::invoke_result<MapFunction, const T&>::type>> R map(MapFunction) const;

has the problem that now, to specify the Vector type, you also need to specify the MapFunction type, which can be hard / impossible when used with lambdas.


My current idea is to use overloading + SFINAE to have another version that looks like:

    template<typename R, typename MapFunction, typename SOME_SFINAE_TEST_HERE> R map(MapFunction) const;
