icon sets shapes and colors
New icon sets feature is great. In general icons can have two characteristics, shape and color.

It would be very smart to implement a wizard button for the Power Query editor too, just to flatten a multi-parent hierarchy near...
NETWORKDATEDIFF() instead of NETWORKDAYS()
I really appreciated the implementation of the function NETWORKDAYS(), however it is useless in most of the scenarios that instead require other time units such as hours. As per DATEDIFF I suggest the implementation of an argument that sets the desired time unit and accepting datetime and not ...
