HI araver - still not possible to customise if developing custom visuals. I think it's a great idea and have asked for this a few times over the years and it hasn't materialised yet.

All you can do currently is request Power BI to display the menu, and pass an optional data point ID, which will permit options such as drilldown/through if Power BI recognises the data point as one it originally sent to the visual.
