Measure Dependency View (similar to the Query Dependency View)

The newly introduced Query Dependency view is phenomenal but what we really need is a Measure Dependency view. Here is what it might look like: http://ppvt.pro/2eXKndh And a video detailing this idea: https://youtu.be/sYjBB_Ef66M In one of my production models I have 60 Queries, but I have 200+ measures! I believe that is typical; usually I build Queries and Measures as lego blocks, combining simpler ones into more complex ones needed in the end. In fact I needed it so badle that I attempted to build a Measure Dependency view using NodeXL. While that works, it's a lot of heavy lifting. How cool would it be, to just click a button on Power BI Desktop and see all your measures in a Dependency tree!

Lineage is important.

This is an absolutely essential addition to Power BI. DAX is such a joy to write but when your measure is 3 or 4 levels deep, it can get very difficult to make changes.

Here here!! I have 600+ measures in my staging model and it's very difficult to debug at this point.
