Ah, no, those queries are enshrined within the middleware as Python strings with placeholdders. When in need of being run they are assembled into a list of dicts-enriched-with-arguments-per-query (and fed to run_queries()). As to what queries *give* me: I have set up psycopg2 to, indeed, hand me a list of dicts (DictRow instances, that is). Those are then used in display rather than being fed to run_queries().
