 The `Mapper` has the signature:
 
 ```go
-type Mapper[T any] func(context.Context, cols) (before func(*Values) (any, error), after func(any) (T, error))
+type Mapper[T any] func(context.Context, cols) (before BeforeFunc, after func(any) (T, error))

 A mapper returns 2 functions
 
-* before: This is called before scanning the row. The mapper should schedule scans using the `ScheduleScan` or `ScheduleScanx` methods of the `Row`. The return value of the **before** function is passed to the **after** function after scanning values from the database.

 * **WithRowValidator**: If the `StructMapper` has a row validator, the values will be sent to it before scanning. If the row is invalid (i.e. it returns false), then scanning is skipped and the zero value of the row-type is returned.
