The green ShapeBinder is similar to the blue one when the blue has set TraceSupport to true. That makes a difference when shapebinding something from within another Part container.
Additionally
the new green ShapeBinder
- has its own (relative) placement
- can bind more than one object
- creates a face from a sketch (even if the property "MakeFace" is set to false)
- can be detached from its source

the old blue ShapeBinder
- can be switched between keeping its position and not
- can bind single faces, edges, and vertices
- can bind only one object or sketch.

I think that finally we should have only one of them with appropriate properties for configuration.
