Allow dashboards to use hidden columns for click behaviour

In some cases, it makes sense to hide something like a UUID from a dashboard card, but still using it to link somewhere. This is not currently possible.

Example:
Table: id, name, description, created_at

I’d like to hide the ID from the card, but set up click behaviour on name to redirect the user to some.domain.com/profile/{id} so the question would look like…

name | description | created_at
abcde | something x | 1/1/2020

… but if I try to do that, it will say that the column is not available since it’s hidden.
