Leveraging segments on foreign keyed tables

I have a table called “Products” and created a segment on that table called “Specials”. This works fine. I have another table called “Sales” that FKs to “Products”. When I build a question on “Sales” and attempt to filter using the “Products” “Specials” segment it is not visible. I can create a new segment on the “Sales” table that references the “Products” table.

Since the “Products” table is FK’d by a number of other tables I’d prefer to define the segment once and reuse. Is this possible? (google chrome, ubuntu, metabase 32.8)

Hi @brianwilson
Currently not possible - I’m linking to both requests, since I’m actually unsure if one of them is a duplicate or if they are asking for different things:
