Congratulations on opening your first change. Thank you for your contribution!

Next steps:
A maintainer will review your change and provide feedback. See
https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html#review for more info and tips to get your
patch through code review.

Most changes in the Go project go through a few rounds of revision. This can be
surprising to people new to the project. The careful, iterative review process
is our way of helping mentor contributors and ensuring that their contributions
have a lasting impact.

During May-July and Nov-Jan the Go project is in a code freeze, during which
little code gets reviewed or merged. If a reviewer responds with a comment like
R=go1.11 or adds a tag like "wait-release", it means that this CL will be
reviewed as part of the next development cycle. See https://golang.org/s/release
for more details.

The default assumption for APIs in Go is that they are not goroutine safe unless explicitly mentioned. But some are, in fact goroutine safe.

Other than that, I would phrase it as
"Transformers can have state and it is not safe to use a single Transformer in multiple goroutines unless noted otherwise."

But I would be in favor of not adding this.

well, I don't mind either. Just wanted to avoid others (e.g. newbies) getting the same problem and saving their time to debug.
