In certain situations I need to distribute the pbix among key-users workstations without data into it. It would be nice to have a "Clean Data" option on each table.

Thanks for the feedback - You can already accomplish this scenario by using the "Export -> Power BI Template" option (via File menu). It will generate a .pbit file that you can share with other users. A .pbit file contains the Report, Data Model and Queries definition without the actual data. When "User B" opens a Template file, a .pbit will be generated and data will be loaded into the model using User B's credentials.
