Copy Data to Clipboard should be a simple right-click context menu capability --- as it has been in Tableau for years. Often, user wants data being displayed without going through export to CSV and import into Excel. Just simple copy-paste of data out of visual to clipboard to ... whatever intended ... is extremely useful.

In order to bring the information in the labels to a presentation or an email, it would be fabulous to be able to copy the values of metrics.

This capability would be very useful for ad-hoc data researches where you can utilize full power of PowerQuery + data modeling for smaller sets of complex data.
