It would be nice to have some additional controls over the Logo Bar. In my mind, this would be scoped to embedded features like anonymous/public reports or those that have been embedded in SharePoint Online - all web versions. For what it is worth, I would also consider these premium features worth upgrading to a pro license:

* Control background color to better match surrounding elements instead of being hard-coded to #eaeaea
* Be able to add source branding, maybe an image (logo?) or some text either before or after "Microsoft Power BI" - for example "Megacorp Inc. Annual Budget Report powered by Microsoft Power BI" or similar.
* Include an option to not show the bar at all. It looks like there is already some javascript code that controls the showLogoBar angular scope variable. In my testing, setting that value to false did in fact hide the bar. Let's get some additional logic in there to put the report authors in control! :)

As an additional point of reference, we have some embedded reports from ESRI we considered moving to Power BI but the fixed 56px high bar on the bottom of every report was pushed back. Maybe there are some alternatives as well with a MS PowerBI overlay or something that might be another way of approaching this request in a creative, yet different, way too.

RE: Option to customize or hide Logo Bar

This is very important. SEE: https://imgur.com/a/ePgcY

When embedding a Power BI report in a bespoke application, we should be able to specify the background colour of the object being embedded. I am not talking about the background colour of a report page, but the colour around the page, which at the moment is set to #EAEAEA.

While sometimes we might be able to get rid of this background by resizing the object, it gets more complicated when we want the object to be responsive to different resolutions -- particularly with the height if we have additional objects under it.
