Description
The hotkey to execute sql checks for ; to differentiate queries. It is very handy to just look for multiple newlines instead:
select * from something
select * from something where 1=1
If your cursor was just on the last line, it would execute the where 1=1 query instead of failing.

Research direction
Start at the hotkey to execute SQL and trace how the current query is selected from semicolon-separated text. Define how a configurable multiple-newline split should interact with the cursor and the existing semicolon behavior. Done means the example executes only the query containing the cursor when the setting is enabled, with existing behavior preserved otherwise.
