Visibility into Source Table Metadata
Currently, there is no available option to view metadata or properties (such as data source name, original location, or table lineage) for a Shortcut table. Providing this level of visibility is critical for data governance, auditing, and root cause analysis. Especially in environments where multiple shortcuts and data sources are interconnected. This information would be invaluable for both developers and administrators managing enterprise data at scale.
Improved Stability and Reliability of Shortcut Integration
We've observed some recurring instability or performance issues when using Shortcuts in production environments. Enhancing the underlying reliability and offering better diagnostics or logging would go a long way in increasing user confidence and adoption of this feature.

- This would be extremely helpful for us. We have many different workspaces and have table shortcuts all over the place. When you view the details of a shortcut in the lakehouse, you can see the target workspace and lakehouse IDs, but these aren't very user friendly. Providing the names rather than the IDs would be much more valuable.
