Grouping Fields into dimensions and measures will allow for quickly locating the fields and helps design reports faster, rather than searching the long list of fields.

C'mon already - it's ridiculous this isn't a feature.

RE: Grouping Fields into dimensions and measure
And to add, measures should be organized in folders that are totally independent of underlying tables. The user does not care of the underlying data-model structure.
The current implementation of folders 'within' a Logical table does not go far enough. Future state needs for the designer to have the ability to hide logical tables and create a 'Business Friendly' structure where the underlying fields are mapped.
I have built ad-hoc implementations like this for customers, so I know this is a TRUE need. To wit, these structures vary based on Role - just putting it out there for the Power BI product managers!

This feature is a no-brainer. How is it not in Power BI?!!! This is a deal breaker!
RE: Grouping Fields into dimensions and measure
This feature is available in almost all other self-serving BI tools and it is a must-have! Please make it happen!

Just a slicer for dimensions vs measures at the top of the search bar would be lovely!
