If you have a huge table in there then running it with `--counts` can get expensive, because of the huge table.

Would be useful if it could accept an optional list of tables that it should execute against, as an alternative to the default of all of them.

This should be a backwards compatible change. Current design is:  https://sqlite-utils.datasette.io/en/stable/cli-reference.html#tables

Usage: sqlite-utils tables [OPTIONS] PATH

  List the tables in the database

cat items.json | jq '.data' | sqlite-utils insert listings.db listings - --convert '

'  --import=enchant --ignore

I noticed as the number of rows increases the operation becomes quite slow, likely due to the creation of the `d = enchant.Dict(""en_US"")` object for each row. Is there a way to share that instance `d` between transform function calls, like a shared context?",140912432,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/420/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,completed
