The problem is that the SQL query itself represents data that can change from one moment to the next. It's no good showing a ""Binary: 55 bytes"" message that links to that same SQL query but with a `.blob` extension and arguments to select the particular result, because the data may change in a way that causes that query to return a different row - at which point the download link will give you the wrong data, not the 55 bytes you asked for. So providing a download link risks being misleading.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",729096595, https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1050#issuecomment-716174203,https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1050,716174203,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDcxNjE3NDIwMw==,9599,2020-10-25T16:27:39Z,2020-10-25T16:53:27Z,OWNER,"Idea: `.blob` output rendererer, where you tell it which column you want using `?_blob_column=x`.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",729057388, https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1050#issuecomment-716175236,https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1050,716175236,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDcxNjE3NTIzNg==,9599,2020-10-25T16:35:20Z,2020-10-25T16:35:20Z,OWNER,"This is clearly a better solution than the one I implemented in #1040 - I don't have to add a new route, I don't have to implement permission checks, it reuses mechanism.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",729057388, https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1034#issuecomment-716078777,https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1034,716078777,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDcxNjA3ODc3Nw==,9599,2020-10-25T01:25:11Z,2020-10-25T01:25:11Z,OWNER,"SQLite actually has APIs that could help here: https://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/column_database_name.html - for any given SQL query they identify the origin/table/column that is the source of each resulting column.
