Please add the ability to segment charts by different dimensions. This is would be like the "facet" functionality in sanddance or like what you can easily do in Tableau--essentially one visualization repeated many times across each dimension value (e.g. region).

I agree. Nice to do in R and bring in, but should be a built-in visual.

While this can be done in R and brought in, it would be handy to have this feature by default in Power BI.

I also need something like this. It makes more easy to analyze plenty of data that use the same x axis and y axis values

'Yes, this is a must have for me. R ggplot facet_grid is another example of this. With this functionality we would be able to create compact dynamic grids of charts for things like:
- correlation analysis
- excel-sparkline like minigraphs
- dynamic set of kpi cards created depending on slicer slections
- etc.

This is the kind of things that distinguish a real exploratory/insight discovery tool from
traditional BI packages.
