This is a significant issue for timezones that are UTC+ (like Australia) that mean the relative date filtering is useless and confusing for end-users.
Unfortunately (for UTC+ locations) it is not such a big issue for places like the USA (where Microsoft Power BI team is based...) as the timezone is UTC- (not UTC+) hence "TODAY" clocks-over in the early evening (when most workers don't notice).
Having relative date reports that "clock-over to today" in the middle of the morning (e.g. 10:30am) is confusing for end-users, "today" data cannot be viewed on the report until after 10:30am (at which time the reported data changes under the user's feet).
This basic capability for an Analytics tool is unusable in Power BI for half the countries in the world.
The age of this ticket does not give me hope that Microsoft Power BI team cares much about the "other" half of the world - let's hope I'm wrong.
