See expr->string and read-from-string, both in string.ss in

I would call these tree-map and tree-any.  More consistent
with other code (e.g. SRFI 43).

Perhaps something in SRFI-1 does this?  It has various
procedures for dealing with lists as sets.

Maybe 'chain' would do?  I might make it a variable arity
function, rather than accepting a list of functions.

Perhaps tree-flatten or tree->list?
