Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating where fluent-plugin-sql builds its pre-written SQL queries and review how input and output queries are configured; clarify whether custom column selection or query-time data changes are intended, then define the expected behavior and tests before implementing anything.

Description

enhancement

Hello. I was wondering if it is possible to modify the pre-written query, to omit redundant table columns and such.
Is this possible, or something similar like modifying the data in queries to avoid later data handling.

If this is the wrong place to ask, then please let me know. I am a bit unsure.
