Custom Report sharing

Today Reports that come with the product is shared amongst Tenants. When a user in a Tenant run a report, the report is run with that Tenants context in mind, and for example a Virtual Machine report displays the VMs the Tenant has access to, and nothing more. Which is great.

However, we are unable to share Custom Reports amongst Tenants. I would like to be able to share some, but not all ,of the Custom Reports that we create as administrators of the product, with our Tenants.

Today the only way I can do this is by exporting the Custom Report, send the file to someone in that Tenant, and ask them to import the Custom Report into their Tenant. This is not user friendly or effective.

I would like to request the ability to share custom Reports created by users with the role "EvmRole-super_administrator" in the Top Tenant to other Tenants. For our use case it would be enough with a tick box "Available to all Tenants", which  Enables or Disables the visibility of these report to all other Tenants.

Once a user in a Tenant has run the report, the content of the report should be in the context of the resources available to the Tenant. Similar to what happens for the product default reports as described above.

The ability to group custom reports by custom folders, and not just the single current "Custom" folder would also be great.
