Comment on What Happens When You Put a Database in the Browser?

I tried https://shell.duckdb.org/, but it was a very rough experience.

The "delete" button does not work. The "home" button inserts a whitespace. Pasting with "Ctrl+v" also does not work. Every keypress results in blinking, and there is a notable input lag.

When I tried a query

    duckdb> SELECT * FROM 'https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3.amazonaws.com/github_events/partitioned_json/*.gz'
       ...> ;
    Catalog Error: Table with name https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3.amazonaws.com/github_events/partitioned_json/*.gz does not exist!
    Did you mean "sqlite_master"?
    LINE 1: SELECT * FROM 'https://clickhouse-public-datasets.s3....

Suggesting the "sqlite_master" database is also misleading.

How would DuckDB know which *.gz are in that folder? Is there a directory listing?
