consider renaming "transform" method in transform elements
The main worker method in transform elements is the internal method associated with the internal pad, as that's the pad executed after all the sink pads have been processed and all the input data is available. In this way of thinking about things, the internal method is actually the "transform" method of the transform element. However the transform method in transform elements is currently associated with the output source pads, which I believe is misleading.
I propose we change the transform method of the transform element to just be called new, in accordance with now it is named for source elements. This would eliminate the misleading nature of the current name, that would seem to imply that the transform method is where the element's "transformation" activity should occur. It would also bring consistency to the naming of the method associated with source pads across all elements that utilize source pads, which would eliminate another source of potential confusion.
