#  Details::  Module for loaders, providing a process hook which populates a model,
#             based on a method map and supplied value from a file - i.e a single column/row's string value.
#             Note that although a single column, the string can be formatted to contain multiple values.
#
#             Tightly coupled with Binder classes (in lib/engine) which contains full details of
#             a file's column and it's correlated AR associations.
