Then I saved this as `table.html` in the `write-templates/` directory:
```html+django

{% block content %}

I ran Datasette like this:
$ datasette --plugins-dir=write-plugins/ data.db --template-dir=write-templates/
Result: I can delete tables!

Like an in-memory counter variable that starts at 0 and increments every time this instance of Datasette issues a new task ID?
The neat thing about UUIDs is that I don't have to worry if there are multiple Datasette instances accepting writes behind a load balancer. That seems pretty unlikely (especially considering SQLite databases encourage only one process to be writing at a time)... but I am experimenting with PostgreSQL support in #670 so it's probably worth ensuring these task IDs really are globally unique.
I'm going to stick with UUIDs. They're short-lived enough that their size doesn't really matter.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",570101428,

Without it all I really need to do is return the `uuid` so something could theoretically poll for completion later on.
But is it weird having a function that returns different types depending on if you passed `block=True` or not? Should they be differently named functions?

> I'm going to move ahead without needing that ability though. I figure SQLite writes are _fast_, and plugins can be trusted to implement just fast writes. So I'm going to support either fire-and-forget writes (they get added to the queue and a task ID is returned) or have the option to block awaiting the completion of the write (using Janus) but let callers decide which version they want. I may add optional timeouts some time in the future.

> I am going to make both `execute_write()` and `execute_write_fn()` awaitable functions though, for consistency with `.execute()` and to give me flexibility to change how they work in the future.

> I'll also add a `block=True` option to both of them which causes the function to wait for the write to be successfully executed - defaults to `False` (fire-and-forget mode).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",570101428,
