    when you first connect and select multiple tables each table is actually created separately, the easy way to edit it is to go to Query editor 

     

    the easiest way to add new table is to add new data source (no need to go to Query Editor at all). I think you will see all the tables there, so you could possibly load the same table twice, but that's easy to fix

    I think so, I didn't use the data gateways much
    you can see the dependencies in the query editor, inthe View Tab

    I expect you to see your DW at the top with arrows pointing to multiple tables (regardless whether they were created in the begining or added later)

     

    You can review the M code that got generated for different tables in Advanced Editor in the Home tab, so you can compare it for  the original and added tables - top 2 rows should be identical (if it's all same database)
