I wonder why this should be a filter. Based on the example you’ve
given, there’s no reason this pseudocode couldn’t just be passed
as a string.

Yes, because the focus of those name is on the fact that
something gets preprocessed, rather than on what it is that is
being preprocessed. You want something broadly along the lines of
DBIx::PerlishQueryLanguage (though the particular choice is
horrible; I just wanted to demonstrate what the focus should be
on but couldn’t be bothered to think of a good name).
