Is it possible to make a Roll Query with a drop-down prompt where the options are Abilities that contain templates?

I hope the title wasn't too confusing. I'm trying to make a macro for a cantrip spell, so I can select which cantrip I want to cast. I have an Ability in my character sheet that's a roll query. That roll query is suppose to create a drop-down menu, where the options are other abilities in my character sheet. If I create an ability named "Sample" that reads: "Display Text" it will do so. However, if I change "Display Text" to anything beginning with "&{template:default}", it breaks the drop down menu. Is it possible to display templates correctly in this way?

Yes, but it's a lot of work. See the  advanced roll query wiki for details. I would recommend using  ability command buttons to make a chat menu instead as it is much more straightforward, and may already be done for you depending on your character sheet.
Aw jeez, so it wouldn't even be a case of "find and replace", since some of the end curly brackets would need to be in there. I was trying to avoid command buttons (since the other players are known to occasionally spam the chat (; ) but I guess that's the only option for having selectable macros within a macro.
