Ability to select multiple items in a chart say multiple bars, pie's etc and automatically have filters applied to all the existing reports. this helps to highlight anomalies and see all the surrounding reports changes as we do it and showcase risks/opportunities

As of the February update, we now support cross-highlighting across multiple visuals! You can read the details in my blog post: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-february-2018-feature-summary/#crosshighlight

RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
Visual Filtering is nice - but having the ability to filter columns by different criteria would be very very helpful and more user friendly. Example, in our business two of our top metrics are based on ticket statues, 'Closed' & 'Work complete', and the other metric is based off 'Closed' We have to create two visuals to filter these. Having this in one table or matrix - but being able to filter within the selected column would be powerful

Crucial!
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
Really, the lack of this basic functionality makes Power BI feel like a kids' version compared to Qlik and Tableau! Power BI got so many other fantastic features that made it a favorite within my organization, but the lack of this simple thing makes us holding back on rolling it out wide in organization.

just ... YES. Multi-filtering across multiple tables is vital for us.
RE: Ability to select multiple items in a report for cross-highlighting
I started to use Power BI and as Qlik user this was the first thing that I saw. We are not able also just to click in the chart and filter whatever you want. You need to go to filter tab.
