Live Excel export not including rows with empty cells

In the Visualizations panel of my report in the Power BI desktop app, I set a particular column to show items with no data. The report data shows as expected in app.powerbi.com.

 

However, when I go to More Options > Export Data and click Summarized data, and then select .xlsx with live connection, the generated file doesn't include the rows with the blank cells like it does in app.powerbi.com.

 

Those rows are included when export using the Data with current layout option or non-live .xlsx connection option. However, we would really benefit from the .xlsx with the live connection.

You can modify that query yourself.  In Power BI use Performance Analyzer to "borrow"  the original query for the visual, and then in Excel replace the auto generated DAX with it.
