[Feature Request] Jump to Report (Choice of report to the user)

I am trying to build a report with a "jump to report" (with all the
applicable parameters) effect in a table.
But based on user's choice - I somehow want to let them choose which
report they can jump on.
How may I present them the choices?
One idea I had was to create a dummy report that stores all the
parameters, and then provide different report options...You might want to use jump to url instead. Here is an idea: You have a
report that shows the values you want to have the user select from. Just
show it in a table. Have one of the fields (could be an extra field that
says, Detail ... or something like that. Make it blue and underlined. Then
set the advanced properties and use the jump to URL setting the appropriate
parameters. Depending on how complicated it is you might want to create code
behind that assembles the URL string for you.

an
IIF(Fields!xxx.Value = "A", "AReport", IIF(Fields!xxx.Value = "B",
"BReport", "")
