In seplyr: Improved Standard Evaluation Interfaces for Common Data Manipulation Tasks

#' group_by and transmute as an atomic action.
#'
#' Group a data frame by the groupingVars and compute user summaries on
#' this data frame (user summaries specified in ...).  Enforces the
#' good dplyr pipeline design principle of keeping group_by and
#' transmute close together.
#' Author: John Mount, Win-Vector LLC.

#' @param d data.frame
#' @param groupingVars character vector of column names to group by.
#' @param ... list of dplyr::transmute() expressions.
#' @param arrangeTerms character optional vector of quoted column expressions to arrange by.
#' @param env environment to work in.
#' @return d transmuteed by groups
