Why? Now you fill in 'eval' then you would fill in 'validation'. Why is 
this more complex?

I haven't thought about the extensability right now, but of course it 
shouldn't be a fixed set.

I would call it 'inputTransformation'. In case of the date you have to set 
it up both for input and output, but eg md5 is an input-only transformation.
