Currently the tooltips are different iirc, as they sometimes have longer
strings. Maybe we should allow them to be customised in the same way?

No, scripts are just an entry point to the query tool.

I think we should - and that does seem like one case where we should change
the default to be the function name or similar.

The Help text on the Preferences should list the placeholders the user can
use (I don't think there's any point in stating what the default is). I
would also suggest that setting the value to an empty string should cause
it to return to the default (so when the preferences are reopened, the
default value is shown, and not an empty string).
Thanks!
