Either:
1. Copy tab/sheet from one .pbix file to another (like the ability to copy sheets between Excel files)
2. Copy/paste visuals between reports but allow option to keep interactivity

this is critical for multi-developer projects using a single, shared dataset and building multiple report pages to be combined into one

RE: Combine Power BI reports using shared dataset

To clarify, do you mean:

Choose one report with a "base" dataset.

Combine pages from various reports into one pbix file, using the base dataset.

Use some rules for merging bookmarks, or just merge all bookmarks.
