We definitely need this as we need to provide the pbix to users while the users don't have pro license.

Would like to be able to lock Filter/Fields/Visualizations in a shared PBIX file. The limitation of refresh on the PRO in app.powerbi.com is limiting.

Would like to be able to lock or hide or password protect selected queries in the power query editor.

There's still a great need for version control and privacy protection to get password protection for PBIX files. Within a developer group before sharing with reviewers in PowerBi services, the need is especially high.
