Problem Description

In RDT, the sdtype 'text' is meant to be used for structured data such as IDs. Right now, the only allowed transformer for this is the RegexGenerator which creates data based off a specific regex.

But in some cases, I have other requirements that the RegexGenerator cannot accommodate well. In such instances, it would be nice to use the variant of this functionality in the bothify faker function. Right now, I cannot do this because the AnonymizedFaker is deemed incompatible with text data.

Expected behavior

Allow me to use the AnonymizedFaker with data of sdtype text. As the AnonymizedFaker includes many functions and some of them are very similar to structured text (ID).
