Add the optional ability to dynamically insert a comment with the current Power BI user id in the SQL query for relational data sources that support comments. Many relational data sources support comments in the format /* Power BI User: xxxxxxxx */. This would allow database administrators to determine the user id issuing the SQL Query when users are using shared credentials. This should work in Power BI desktop and in the Online service/gateway.
