"I'd probably prefer a more explicit option"

Thinking further about using the 'SQL Direct' toolbutton here, and reading your
responses, perhaps this is not be a good idea because: it makes one control do
two completely different functions, depending on context. At the moment this
effects the 'mode' or more precisely, if I understand what is happening, it is
just the GUI manifestation for the 'Escape Processing' property on the result 
set. 

Well, there are two 'views' available now from the menu and toolbar. Designer
view and SQL View. OOo already uses context sensitive menus and toolbars
extensively, so introducing another should not throw the users off. What about a
new menu and toolbutton that would change the 'view' again. Not sure about a
name, SQL Native or SQL Raw or SQL Direct. I don't know.

Basically it would be promoting, if you will, the function of the 'SQL Direct'
toolbutton to managing a 'view' of the query definition. A menu item could be
added then to the 'View' menu also. This new 'view' being mutually exclusive to
the others.

Taking this type of approach then it also negates the possibility of creating a
QiQ definition, then selecting 'SQL direct' mode, as is possible now, which can
only result in an error.

Finally, I wonder if this then would merit a new task item in the Base query
window, 'Create query in SQL direct view...'?
