Would it be possible to hash the query and state of a page instead so the url is more manageable? The mapping from hash to query would have to be stored in order to recover/lookup the page after sharing.
It's not uncommon to have things like this currently:
```https://global-power-plants.datasettes.com/global-power-plants?sql=select+rowid%2C+country%2C+country_long%2C+name%2C+gppd_idnr%2C+capacity_mw%2C+latitude%2C+longitude%2C+primary_fuel%2C+other_fuel1%2C+other_fuel2%2C+other_fuel3%2C+commissioning_year%2C+owner%2C+source%2C+url%2C+geolocation_source%2C+wepp_id%2C+year_of_capacity_data%2C+generation_gwh_2013%2C+generation_gwh_2014%2C+generation_gwh_2015%2C+generation_gwh_2016%2C+generation_gwh_2017%2C+generation_gwh_2018%2C+generation_gwh_2019%2C+generation_data_source%2C+estimated_generation_gwh_2013%2C+estimated_generation_gwh_2014%2C+estimated_generation_gwh_2015%2C+estimated_generation_gwh_2016%2C+estimated_generation_gwh_2017%2C+estimated_generation_note_2013%2C+estimated_generation_note_2014%2C+estimated_generation_note_2015%2C+estimated_generation_note_2016%2C+estimated_generation_note_2017+from+%5Bglobal-power-plants%5D+order+by+rowid+limit+101```
I'm thinking a plugin like [https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-query-files](https://datasette.io/plugins/datasette-query-files), but could be created and managed from the UI (with the right permissions).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",814595021,

For instance:
```
datasette -s plugins.datasette-complex-plugin.configs '{""foo"": [1,2,3], ""bar"": ""baz""}'
```
could also be provided using:
```
export DS_PLUGINS_DATASETTE-COMPLEX-PLUGIN_CONFIGS='{""foo"": [1,2,3], ""bar"": ""baz""}'
datasette
```
(I do not like mixing `-` and `_` in env vars but I do not have a best easily reversible example at the moment)
FYI, you could take some inspiration from another great open source data project, Metabase:

The best idea I can think of is that if a plugin wanted to limit intensive queries, it could add LIMITs or something. A hook that gives you visibility of queries and maybe the option to reject felt a little more limited than the existing plugin hooks, so I was trying to think of what else one might want to do while looking at to-be-run queries.
But without a real motivating example, I see why you don't want to add that.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1858228057,

I even use the same parameter name for both (https://studio.zerobrane.com/doc-configuration#configuration-via-command-line), but I understand why you may want to use different ones for files and individual values. There is one small difference that I accept code snippets, but I don't think it matters much in this case.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1855885427,
