I have a service table containing my services and a lot of tables that are linked through FK linking to my service table. I would like to see the aggregated alarm state of a service over all my tables. So if an alarm template is configured to generate an alarm on for example the Program or PID table, it should be reflected on the aggregated service state. Would it be possible to do this in Visual Overview without the need to create services?

Indeed, this would be a very helpful feature.
Is this already on roadmap, or are there any workarounds suggested?

As indicated by Sebastiaan you can use the TreeControl option to bubble up the severity. You could try to display this in Visio through the parameter control option: https://help.dataminer.services/dataminer/#t=DataMinerUserGuidepart_2visioTurning_a_shape_into_a_parameter_control.htm
You can find the TreeControl parameter in your driver:
…
<TreeControl parameterId="500" …
If you are interested in adding a TreeControl into a driver you created you can check the following video (part of our driver development training):
