My apologies. I had sent email to this list last Feb with this request
It would be very useful to be able to export the results of a query as select into statements, at least in the case when there is only one table in the from clause.
I didn't get a reply, so I thought I was asking on the wrong list. When I sent the question about how to ask for a feature, I didn't change the subject, but also didn't include the request.
Thom Brown has it basically right. I want to be able to take the results of what is in the grid editor and produce insert stmts. Perhaps an option under Edit Data/Tools?

SELECT col_a, col_c, col_g FROM my_table LIMIT 3;
to produce something like
INSERT INTO my_table (col_a, col_c, col_g) VALUES (1, 'stuff', true);
INSERT INTO my_table (col_a, col_c, col_g) VALUES (2, 'things', true);
INSERT INTO my_table (col_a, col_c, col_g) VALUES (6, 'misc', false);
