Research direction

The issue says Standardizer drops features that contain missing values instead of passing them through. Start with the proposed changes in pull request #86, which the issue links, and find where the standardizer's fit and transform handle missing entries. Done means missing values are kept in the output and existing tests still pass. Since PR #86 already exists, check its status with the maintainers before starting.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I think we could safely propagate missing values. See this PR for proposed changes.
