Research direction

Review the requested Specter-style select and transform capabilities in the linked project, then inspect toolz's existing functional utilities to determine an appropriate scope and API. Done means the behavior and interface are agreed, implemented with coverage for nested data traversal and transformation, and documented.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

For Clojure there is a very nice library called Specter:
https://github.com/nathanmarz/specter

which does things like select and transform, allowing to traverse and transform a nested data structure much more nicely.

I don't really see something similar in Python, but I think toolz would be a good place for it..
