[hibernate-dev] 6.0 - ResultTransformer

Another legacy concept I'd like to revisit as we move to 6.0 is the Hibernate ResultTransformer. I'd argue that ResultTransformer is no longer needed, especially in it's current form. Specifically, ResultTransformer defines 2 distinct ways to transform the results of a query: 1. `#transformTuple` - this method operates on each "row" of the result, allowing the user to transform the Object[] into some other structure. This is specifically the one I see no value in moving forward. Between dynamic-instantiation, Tuple-handling, etc I think users have the needed capabilities to transform the query result tuples. 2. `#transformList` - this one operates on the query result as a whole (unless scroll/iterate are used). This method at least adds something that cannot be done in another way. But I'd still personally question its overall usefulness. Does anyone have an argument for continuing to support either of these? Personally, I propose just dropping the ResultTransformer support altogether.
