Sometimes I need to track down the origin of some data that is coming out of Power Query. This is a process of taking steps forward and backward in a tree of queries. If I'm not writing down the name of the query each time I switch to a different query, it can be easy to lose my place in the tree, and then I have to start over.

What would be really handy: If I had a "Back" button that would take me to the query I was looking at just before the current one, and even more useful would be if I could push it multiple times to step back through each of the queries I visited.
