Slicer mandatory selection property

A property called "Mandatory select" would be nice under "Selection Controls" for the slicer. This would enforce filtering if the underlying dataset is very big. At least one value must be selected at all times if this property is turned on.

Button to Export to Excel

Exporting data from a visual should be much more intuitive for end-users. Adding the ability to "create a button" for this would be amazing rather than having to walk executives through having to hover and click the three dots to export.

Default measure format to comma and zero decimals
