It would be great if you can add a feature that will allow the end user to select the NEXT or the Previous value.
For example, if we use a country slicer which is currently set to United Kingdom, by clicking 'NEXT' the slicer would move to Uruguay (assuming the values are by alphabetical order)

Button actions to control a slicer [previous, next, etc.]
