Describe the solution you'd like
When constructing a table column, I would like to be able to make the column selection type "Relational" which builds a list from a pre-established table and column.
Bonus: if more than one column can be used for data validate.
Ex. instance I have a table called "Customers" with at least three columns "Name"a text field,"Status" a selection between "Lead, Client, etc.", "isActive" a yes/no; and, I have another table called "Projects" where one of the fields is called "Customers" but I want to create rules to validate the options of that Customers.Name to filter [Status] by "Client" and [isActive] by "Yes".
Describe alternatives you've considered
Sticking to spreadsheets.
Additional context
While this wouldn't make tables a relational database it will add some tremendous functionality and potential. If filtering by multiple columns is not feasible; then perhaps filtering by a single column from a table or a view would add all the functionality required, and then giving views the option to be "hidden" from the sidebar as well as the summary in the main window.
