I suggest putting it in the file as something human-readable.  It's an
easy translate to SQL.  SQL is unlikely to be a popular choice for
people who don't already use it, and all you get for it is a little
more speed from the parser.  I think there are lots of users who just
want to e.g. change a selected "R1" to "S1/R1" (that's how I started
anyway) and they are unlikely to want to fire up an SQL interface to
do it.  Why make them?
