Next time I'm in for service, I'll have them remove it, add some tape or felt, and that'll be that. Slide the shade open, the sound will disappear, a decent short-term fix.

Thanks for the tip...tried it last night but it sounds like its perhaps further back than the sunroof. It was actually quite loud last night and though I've been trying to be a good sport about BMW's and rattles its becomming hard to ignore. The driver's door rattle was also pretty bad last night as well so might be time to take it in while its easy to identify for the service guys. Will see.
