Yes,
THIS IS IT
surprisingly easy, surprisingly not yet standard in Mathematica
can even be prettyfied a little bit:
RightVector[a_,f_]:=f/@a RightVector[a_,more__]:=RightVector[First@{more}/ @a,Sequence@@Rest@{more}]
or we can use LeftTee[ ] which in contrast to RightArrow[ ] already implements the neccesary left-assocciativitiy such that:
LeftTee[a_, f_] := f /@ a
is all we need.
{1,2,3}\[LeftTee]Sin\[LeftTee]Sqrt (looks nicer in a notebook)
