My vote for the [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) would be for more `user_id` style parameters like this #Contribute > Feature request for groups:

> [@Param dropdown for group\_id in data explorer query](https://meta.discourse.org/t/wishlist-param-dropdown-for-data-explorer-query/253883):
>
> I’d love to be able to specify something like this: -- [params] -- groups.id :group\_id to get a parameter input that’s a dropdown of groups. I’ve named the value group\_id here because I assume that’s what such a dropdown would give me.
