Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Show values of foreign keys directly inline in the referenced column of Data table view to offer immediate understanding for parent's value. Especially useful for FK columns using UUID keys.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Given tables Product and Model, given relation Product has many Models, Model references FK `product_id`.
Allow switching between numerical UUID/PK view for such a column or "resolved view" where an actual value (e.g. Product name) would be shown instead of numerical identifier of parent.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
Due to user unfriendliness, other solutions do not offer overview at a glance.
