New GetData from PowerBI Datasets

Once you get beyond having a few datasets around this simply does not work.  The old interface used to sort by (I think) maybe certified and promoted at the top and then by date last refreshed?  Now the date last refreshed is out of date (they do not tie into the dates in the service) so that is of no help.   The search (if you wnat to type in to find something) used to be immediate but now takes - can be up to several minutes - It is just really difficult to find what you are looking for.    I have no confidence I have linked to the correct version of any dataset and it is therefore really dangerous.    I just realised I was looking at data in one of our sandbox datasets instead of the live version!

Please go back to the old interface or make this significantly more usable for those of us that have lots of datasets in lots of similarly titled versions in lots of workspaces.  Filtering for certified etc may be a start?  But getting those last refreshed dates correct is essential.
