      T onBeforeBind(T entity)
      Entity callback method invoked before a domain object is saved. Can return either the same or a modified instance of the domain object. This method is called before converting the entity to a Map, so the outcome of this callback is used to create the record for the domain object.
      Parameters:
      entity - the domain object to save.
      Returns:
      the domain object to be persisted.
