Anyone cares about higher-order functions? use a class name as the $1.

I don't want to have 666 more classes just because someone thinks that 
higher-order functions can be avoided.

I don't think there ought to be more than one [map] class.

And btw, no-one calls that a "mapping" in the real world.

What about generic [zip] [fold] [scan] now?
