You can also do queries in SUB_DEPENDS. Might want to specify that
PREPARE should only be used if modifying DETAILS is required.

Very very minor note:
$SPELL_CONFIG is the old way of saving info and you correctly assert it
should not be used, but theres no api for it.
$SPELL_CONFIG is actually different from persistent vars. Although
persistent var save file name is unfortunatly based on $SPELL_CONFIG.
