When I do C-c a it runs (org-agenda) but I do not have "g" and I am on
development version. The C-c a window is made so that I cannot go with
cursor inside and that I cannot even expect the key map neither invoke
command by M-x and I cannot even M-:

All that is wrong and not aligned to Emacs common interface. It is bug
that bugs. Agenda buffer should allow users those standard Emacs
features.

Do you mean my reaction time or Org reaction time? I did not
understand about to keep file open, how do you mean?

You remember I said Org files with tasks are on my side almost always
related to some people, among them I am included. So I find Org file
per person in the directory wherever it is by clicking F4. Then task
list in the Org file would update itself as I have got the tip on how
to execute the SQL block. Do you mean that SQL block would cost me
reaction time? If so, that can be. In the Hyperscope database managed
by Emacs and displayed within tabulated-list-mode on this T410
Thinkpad the list of entries looks almost instant, I just press left
or right and I get new list. Each time there is SQL query.

Without you telling me I would not be thinking on that, but it is
true, the larger or more complex the query then it could be
processing.

But if there is large list of tasks not done, that means anyway that
something is terribly wrong with it.

Those tasks done, can appear under different heading. But then I
cannot selectively automatically execute block under one heading at
file opening time while not executing block under different heading.
