Pass Multiple Unrelated Tables to R Visual

Right now, I can pass fields from linked tables to an R visual element. What I'd like to be able to do is to "dumb down" Power BI and have it let me pass multiple, unrelated fields (or entire tables) to the script. Power BI could create a separate dataframe for each unrelated table I choose to pass to the visual. That way, I can use multiple, unrelated data sources in my script to produce a visual.

RE: Pass Multiple Unrelated Tables to R Visual

at times it is quite expensive to force powerbi to maintain relationships between big tables. It would be nice if i could just accept 2 different tables and let R work out how to display the combinded data.
