Description
Maybe based on iterake, we could add a light-weight re-implementation of that algorithm. Would be a nice addition to demean() and rescale_weights() to deal with (rather) common problems, which don't have a straight forward solution in many R packages yet.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked iterake implementation and the existing demean() and rescale_weights() functions in datawizard. Clarify the intended algorithm, API, and supported weighting problems before choosing an entry point. Done means a lightweight raking implementation is integrated with those functions and its behavior is covered by tests.
