We currently have an internal function 'mbagp' which tells you whether you
should map certain operators onto the constituents, e.g. abs(a=b) =>
abs(a)=abs(b). As usual in Maxima (sigh), this is not used systematically.
Perhaps $set ought to be added to the official bags -- perhaps it ought to
be a user-visible list bag_operators -- and perhaps outermap should use
mbagp.
