I still find the proposal somewhat unintuitive, but the foot-gun safeguards that have been suggested sound like any pedal injuries will solely be the fault of the user.
The scenario described by Dave sounds similar to how DataGrip handles this. When I click into a query in a script file, the editor highlights the query. Then I have the option to run that portion.
Enabling this functionality will save lots of time normally spent on highlighting a query -- it will be awesome.
I'm also glad the team is adding a separate button to run just the highlighted portion rather than change the behavior of the existing run/execute button.
