Research direction
Start by reviewing how the library currently handles arguments for SQL queries and how options are configured on import. Define the behavior for a Set Arg Default keyword, including whether defaults can be changed during import and how per-query overrides interact with them. Done means the new defaults apply across multiple queries while explicit overrides still work.

Description
Hi
I just watched the DB Library update @ robocon 2026, firstly nice work with the updates 👍
I have a suggestion to have a keyword something like Set Arg Default that people could use to set the default values for these new arguments like replace_robot_variables, split, external_parser, retry_timeout, etc
if you are running multiple SQL queries, it would be useful to set the default values for these arguments once rather than having to over-ride them every time.
Also being able to adjust these defaults on import would be good as well.
