    Expanded dinatural transformation a little with examples and references.

    I’m very glad you did, because it was through the Paré and Román reference that I relocated examples of dinatural transformations (due to Freyd) that I thought were forever lost to buried memory. I may copy them out later.

    Added a yoneda-like correspondence between dinatural transformations and natural transformations between certain hom-sets.

    Also, the discussion in “dinaturality vs extranaturality” has some errors. In particular, in the “bending” calculation, G(x,y) F(y,x)G(x,y)^{F(y,x)} doesn’t make sense. Is it supposed to be D(F(y,x),G(x,y))D(F(y,x), G(x,y)) similar to the yoneda-like description I added?

    Yes, I think that’s what’s meant. In fact what’s going on here is basically the same as in your two-sided Yoneda lemma: the hom-profunctor is a representing object for extranatural transformations.

    I don’t see any other errors, what else do you have in mind?
