As a side note, positional argument feels brittle here since it's not really
a software developement context. I'd suggest this kind of syntax:
```
2100-12-31 query "foo" "select date limit {limit=somedefaultvalue}"
limit: "Number of records to return"
```
and command would be `.run foo limit=3`. Then documentation and reporting
for errors would be much more convenient.
