Yes, that should be the case. REPORT_CREATE should be sufficient for 
creating reports.

Reports 1 - 8, or 1 - 9 (I can't remember the exact number) are the default 
reports. They can be modified and deleted like any other report.

Right, a report can contain SQL or query syntax. Try saving a query as a 
report and then edit the report for that query. You will see that the text 
box that normally contains SQL instead contains a query string.

SQL has the downside that it may not be portable across databases. This is 
a concern if you are, for instance, on SQLite now and later move to MySQL 
and PostgreSQL, in which case your reports may need to be modified when you 
migrate. It's also a concern because some SQL for reports that users have 
posted, for instance to this mailing list, may be specific to a database. 
So beware when copying and pasting.

You should see a //Save query// button on the Query page.
