It would be great if Quick Insights would work on a data set that's not in the PowerBI service. For example a direct query using a live connection.

I am work in the bank and by the security reasons we do not use cloud services, we test the BI report server. A quick look is a very cool functionality that will allow to find data dependencies and suitable visualizations several times faster. Please give us the opportunity to use this functionality without the cloud service.

E.g. SSAS tabular. Is it possible to hand off the load to the SSAS tabular engine?
