Since the last comment from the Power BI team was from over one year ago, I´d like to share an alternative. There is a great (cheap) tool out there that does this. I am in no way involved with this product so please don't flag as inappropriate. Check out https://www.powerbitiles.com.
My company is using this. Since the Power BI API has recently changed, they will soon also support filters on bookmarks. Check it out!

Microsoft works on so many Power BI enhancements that provide little to no value. This would be a huge value add. PLEASE GET THIS DONE!!!
