 This works:

 {{{
 var('r,theta,z,rho,phi')
 cylindrical=[r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta), z]
 plot3d(3,(theta,0,pi/2),(z,0,pi/2),transformation=cylindrical)
 }}}

 but this doesn't (but should work)

 {{{
 cylindrical(r,theta,z)=[r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta), z]
 plot3d(3,(theta,0,pi/2),(z,0,pi/2),transformation=cylindrical)
 }}}

 The problem is we pay too much attention to the type passed into the
 transformation argument.  We should also allow symbolic vectors, as well
 as lists and tuples.
