Good point Malcom, actualy there is a way to design transformers to 
be self current regulating. If you add an additional leg to the core 
such that it by passes the primary BUT leave a gap at one end the 
transformer will be self regulating and in some older transformers 
the gap was made adjustable to allow you to vary the regulation.
