Put ID like columns in dimensions, not metrics - even if they have numeric data types

[sfc-gh-puneet-lakhanpal]

Hi team.

Currently in the semantic model generator, it seems as if the data type is looked at to identify if a field should become a measure or dimension. if a table as IDs which can be join keys, even if they are numeric, they should be classified as dimensions so that they can be joined with other tables and no aggregations can be done on those IDs. just a nice to have to ensure that "ID" like columns should become dimensions, not measures; where the current behavior is that they do become measures.

Hi team, is there any update on this issue ? This is really hindering the join experience since joins are not supported on metrics in semantic model generator.
