    Power BI now has R capability - nice! It would be GREAT if the data frame created in the R visualization consol was made available as a field. This would throw open the power of sqldf package - i.e. one could use the R consol to join data frames in whatever way, apply any of the 7000 packages and then that final data frame is made available for use in other visualizations

    My interpretation of this is that he wants R console output. R scripts only accepts plots. I very much want R console output too.
