AutoMapper DSL design post-mortem

As I move towards the 1.0 release of AutoMapper, I’m already running in to things I wish I had done differently. I still will probably fix all of these eventually, but none of these design issues should prevent a release, especially since it’s not any public functionality. A lot of it came from trying out designs in the open, but it can be difficult to change direction once it’s out in the open and in production. The Fluent NHibernate guys have changed their API quite a bit up to release, for better or worse, and I wasn’t too keen to follow that same path.
