Hello, I really don't have a big problem if rpms want to install the sample-query.sql. However, we won't support it because most or many of the queries are user submitted and don't work on all SQL engines (sometimes it is impossible).
However, for a future version, we might want to provide a bare minimum query.sql that has only queries that we are sure that work on all our SQL engines. In any case, if we get bug reports on sample-query.sql, we will just close them as it is "community" supported code rather than project supported code.
