Is it possible to add the functionality of displaying labels (value, location,etc) on the Shape Map visual (in preview as of June 2016)?

The visual does currently display a tooltip for the location.

Shape Map is so amazing, so data label should be added to this control asap

RE: Shape Map

Shame this has such little interaction. It's possible to create a label using e/n and text values on a separate map. even just the ability to overlay a 'regular' map over the shapemap would be an improvement.

RE: Shape Map

Still not an option as of February 2017. I know Power BI is focused on interactivity, but this severely limits the value of its maps outside of PBI dashboards, e.g. in presentations or print.
