Research direction
Start at _get_column_objects and inspect how it walks the datasource XML, focusing on column tags nested under datasource-dependencies. Confirm how those nodes are currently surfaced as fields; done means dependency columns can be distinguished from ordinary datasource fields so parameters from another datasource are not reported as belonging to this datasource.

Description
Hello again,
I'm not sure if this is actually a bug or if its intentional.
_get_column_objects finds all column tags in a datasourcexml. My problem occurs when there is a dependency in the datasource. These occur when a blend is done on a field or when a parameter is used in a calculation in that datasource. The following structure occurs:
The highlighted column element, inside of the datasource-dependencies element, gets passed as a field. This gives me the illusion that my [Parameter 1] is part of this datasource, while in reality it is part of the 'Parameters'-datasource.
Is there any way I can distinguish these fields from datasource-dependencies, from other fields?
Thanks again!
