That's not really aligned with my vision/goals, which is to bring my data home; but to be clear, downloading your data doesn't mean it has to leave the cloud. You can have your cake and eat it too.

The debate between importing he data and indexing external data is a long, grueling one, but ultimately I cannot be satisfied with not having my data guaranteed to be locally available.

I suppose in the future it's possible we could add the ability to index external data, but this likely wouldn't work well in practice since most data sources lock down real-time access via their API restrictions.
