Slicer Search - Add "Select All Results" option

The basic Slicer in power bi already has a search feature. My request is to add a way to select all search results in one click. For example, say I search a text column in the slicer for all values with "ipad" and I get 200+ results returned in the slicer. It would be super helpful if you could select all 200+ results in one click since selecting one-by-one is so tedious.

Can I vote more than once for this! So very annoying when I have end users selecting 50+ items manually.

A basic function that should be available. We can do this in an Excel filer when I search, should be here.
Also, Tableau has this feature........

The select "all" from filter is obvious requirement for anyone trying to look at groupings that have not had suitable tagging made. This may also benefit from google style search for multiple constraints ie. + to include - to exclude

Just echoing the sentiment. Please add this relatively basic feature. Many consider it a fundamental feature, not a "nice to have".

Maybe put a focus group together that consists of developers/end users in many different industries (insurance, tech, retail, etc...). Then, ask them if they work with computers, data, and > 25 numbers. If they answer yes (I suspect they will), boom! You've got your answer. They have the tools, content, and quantity of data necessary for the ability to search numbers in a slicer/filter.
