 Needs item 5. The engine returns column values and the root builds `Record`. Revises the decision "The template engine stays the root package until item 107; the draw state and the grammar sit in `internal/`, and items 99 to 103 move what else stands alone there", and, if the vocabulary moves, "The vocabulary sits below `doc.go`'s package clause, not in the package doc".
