Something to think about, but I hate how long the url is when sharing a custom SQL query. 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, but could be created and managed from the UI (with the right permissions).
