Measure Management & DAX Editor

Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures would save a lot of time! This would take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. I've prepared a mockup for this as well as a DAX Editor. Let me know what you think. Mockup: https://i.imgur.com/z6TBOQb.png?1

For me, as we go through customer requirements and feedback looping, and the model changes shape, I end up with millions of old/disused measures. I'd love an option similar to RDBMS / SQL Server style "view dependencies" to trace the lineage of a measure or calculated column. This could be a way to identify "orphaned" measures which are no longer relevant or in use e.g. they are not referenced by any other measure and not employed in any visuals.
