If you want a new issue to be created when an unknown number is entered, you
can instantiate it rather than throwing the ``TransformationFailedException``.

.. note::

When ``null`` is passed to the ``transform()`` method, your transformer
should return an equivalent value of the type it is transforming to (e.g.
an empty string, 0 for integers or 0.0 for floats).
