Ignition's query bindings are extraordinarily flexible. If you really want users to not worry about the behavior of the query inside your component, do not put the query inside your component.

You are re-inventing the wheel. You are unlikely to do this as well as IA already did, with query bindings. Really. Don't have your component run its own queries.

IA has some components that run their own queries. They are frustrating to use and utterly inflexible. Don't follow that example.
