    This now creates a lot of coupling between the filter mapper and the stream 
mapper.  Simply because the Filter Mapper is the one that declares the output 
fields.
    
    ```
        public void declareOutputFields(OutputFieldsDeclarer declarer) {
            filterMapper.declareOutputFields(declarer);
        }
    ```
    
    So either we need to embrace the coupling and have StreamMapper also be a 
FilterMapper.  (which would require some documentation) or we find a way to 
fake out FilterMapper and have it declare multiple outputs for what the 
StreamMapper wants. 
    
    I prefer the first one, because it seems like it would be more flexible.
