Yep, looking good now, thanks! Other datasets that don't have CORS headers still don't work ie. https://sql-workbench.com/#config=%7B%22plugin%22%3A%22Datag... but I'm guessing that's inherent limitation of running this without a backend

Yes, unfortunately if the "foreign" sources don't support CORS, you'd have to use a CORS proxy... If you want to self-host, there's one at https://github.com/Zibri/cloudflare-cors-anywhere that can be deployed to CloudFlare Workers (the code is a bit messy though).

GitHub supports CORS for raw data for example, that's why I put it in the sample queries.
