Register a function to `_actor` and `actor(""id"")`will be called for `_actor_id`.

But does it make sense for every magic parameter to be of form `_a_b`? I think so.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",638212085,Magic parameters for canned queries,

```python
import sqlite3

conn = sqlite3.connect("":memory:"")


class Magic(dict):

        return key.upper()


conn.execute(""select :name"", Magic()).fetchall()

Could I do this with a custom class that implements `__getitem__()` and then gets passed as SQLite arguments?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",638212085,Magic parameters for canned queries,
