Submit IdeaSort / filter by measures
Dataset sort (and filter) currently only allows sorting by dimensions (not measures). However, to show, for example a 'top 10' in a stacked bar chart, requires to sort & filter based on the measure rather than the dimension. It would also enable customers to show only rows where a measure is above or below a threshold.

Show which Embeddables have been broken by a model change
When you change a model (add/remove/change a dimension/measure/join/etc.) this may cause certain Embeddables to break (component inputs / interations, dataset models, sorts and filters, etc.). This idea is about having some kind of report that tells you exactly which Embeddables have been (or would be) broken by your model changes, so you can quickly track them down and fix them.

Conditionally apply dataset filter based on boolean variable
E.g. you may want to create a toggle component that optionally filters out null values from a table. This would require you to be able to conditionally apply a dimension``not Null filter, based on a variable.

Allow converting (aka casting) between types
Sometimes variables are being set as one type (e.g. text or boolean or number) but we want to use them as an input for a component that expects a different type. Automatic converting or casting of types (where it makes sense) could significantly reduce this problem. This problem comes up regularly when a control is designed to be reusable and thus its events always output strings, even though the dimension it came from might be a number of boolean, etc.

Show/hide parts of a dashboard based on a variable
Sometimes a part of a dashboard only makes sense to show once the user has selected an input.

Containers for components
To make building dashboards in the no-code builder easier, we'll introduce the concept of 'containers' to layout components on the canvas

API to programmatically configure an Embeddable dashboard
Something to ease a component prop migration, or to create a template in case we go into the hundreds of dashboards. E.g. a basic import/export JSON endpoint to configure an Embeddable

Support for nested AND and OR logic in dataset filters
Currently dataset filters all use simple AND across each filter. It is, however, common that you might want to use OR instead, or a nesting thereof.

Folders for Embeddables
Make it easier for Embeddable builders to organise their Embeddables using folders.

Embeddable data playground
Test out your cube models as you build, within the Embeddable dev UI

Increase the columns in the Embeddable canvas
Currently the canvas columns make it difficult to size components exactly as we'd like.

Use dimensions and measures as variables
This will allow you to dynamically control which dimension or measure to segment or aggregate by. E.g. you could have a dropdown containing a list of dimensions or measures, and then when users switch to another dimension or measure, all the charts update to show that dimension or measure.
