Imagine using the capabilities of SSIS or plain SQL Server and/or to execute Power Query transformations at high speeds. I see Power BI Designer as the transformations editor + small data transformation tool and SSIS/SQL as the big data transformation tool.

Power Query is now available as a source in SSIS: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/integration-services/data-flow/power-query-source?view=sql-server-2017

Must have, now that a managed SSIS is available on Azure!

Explicit data transformation pipeline support in Power BI Desktop would be great. Same flow for data cleanup & mashup as now, but final step would be export to CSV instead of visualization. I know it's possible to export CSV data from visuals, but it's very limited.

There should be an SSIS data flow component that can execute M. That would be the ideal balance
