Re: [I] Can't use cross-filtering on a column from a table whose name has been overidden [superset]

rusackas commented on issue #24836:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/24836#issuecomment-4042951285

   To summarize the two approaches discussed for fixing this:
   1. **Cross-filter emits underlying column name**: When a cross-filter is applied from a table chart, emit the raw column name (not the display label) so downstream filters can match correctly. This may require tracking a mapping from display label to column name in the chart's cross-filter output.
   2. **UI-only column renaming**: Add a "display name" field to table column customization that changes what's shown in the table without modifying the SQL alias, so the technical column name is preserved end-to-end.
   
   Either approach would be a valuable contribution. If you're interested in working on this, please comment here with your proposed approach before starting. @kasiazjc — any thoughts on direction?
