transformations

[Antranig Basman]

Hi Anastasia, thanks for this report. The issue wasn't related to "outputPath" but was actually a bug in the 
valueMapper implementation which didn't accept options right-hand-sides which were literal values. I've 
pushed a fix and test case to my branch FLUID-4695 as well as additional implementation and tests for 
dealing with the case you mentioned of a target model structure which is non-default through containing 
array types - do try it out and let me know what further problems you run into.

Cheers,
A.
