I'm working on some small front-end enhancements to the laion-aesthetic-datasette project, and I wanted to partially populate a database directly using exports from the existing Datasette instance instead of downloading the parquet files and creating my own multi-GB database.

There have been a number of small issues that are certainly related to my relative lack of familiarity with the toolkit, but that are still surprising.

For example: a CSV export of the images table (http://laion-aesthetic.datasette.io/laion-aesthetic-6pls.csv?sql=select+rowid%2C+url%2C+text%2C+domain_id%2C+width%2C+height%2C+similarity%2C+punsafe%2C+pwatermark%2C+aesthetic%2C+hash%2C+index_level_0+from+images+order+by+random%28%29+limit+100) has nested single quotes, double quotes, and commas that aren't handled by rows_from_file. Similarly, the json output has to be manually transformed to add the column names and remove extraneous information before sqlite_utils can import it.

I was able to work through these issues, but as an enhancement it would be really helpful to create or document a clear workflow that avoids the friction of this data transformation.
