+	@brief projectDataBase::bindElementValues
+	Bind one element's row for the element table.
+
+	Shared by addElement() (a single element added to a live diagram) and
+	populateElementTable() (a full rebuild), because those two used to bind
+	the same row differently: the incremental path wrote
+	kindInformations()["type"] into sub_type while the bulk path wrote
+	elementData().masterTypeToString(). The element table therefore held
+	different values depending on whether the project had been reloaded
+	since the element was placed. One binder means live and reloaded agree
+	by construction rather than by coincidence.
+
+	The bulk path's values are the ones kept: they are what every already
+	saved project contains, so nothing a reload produces changes.
