Ability to have multiple windows open for one document, just like Excel.
Excel - View tab, "New Window"
This function will save some headache while manipulating with the data, and having to click back forth between the tables or even the relationships.

The sooner the better....
RE: Multiple Windows
Yes please. After working a lot with power pivot, which is open in a separate window allowing me to have excel open at the same time, it feels really frustrating to be stuck in one window.
1. In Power Pivot I can keep working with the reports while data is being updated to power pivot. In Power BI, everything is put on hold while waiting for data to be updated.
2. In Power Pivot, since I have the report (Excel) window open parallell to the data window, it's easier for me to see the needs from the report and the effect in the report from the changes I do in the model.
Would love for this to be implemented.

Will save a lot of time. I do a Snipping for relations screen and have an Excel with the tables when I do mesures.
RE: Multiple Windows
Please do that!
