Anyone who uses PowerBI long enough has had a PBIX with 50-60 measures and it has become time consuming and tedious to mantain. In Excel you can do a quick find/replace to edit several formulas - in PowerBI you need to select each one individually. An "excel-like" interface for editing measures would save a lot of time! This would take PowerBI to the next level regarding productivity. I've prepared a mockup for this as well as a DAX Editor. Let me know what you think.

RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
Does moving to "Backlog" mean this feature suggestion go to the head of the line or does it get thrown into the back of the line never to be seen again. If the latter, how can we indicate that it is a very much needed feature? Is there a similar request in a different area?
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
Please Please advance this feature asap. Entire world will thank you so much. I’am sure of that.
Happy 2019!!

Mockup looks great! I hope it gets picked up.

'+ a type ahead functionality would be a plus, or kind of "auto fill", e.g. start typing "calc" than press e.g. "Tab" and the editor propose results, like "Calculate".
+ a formula checker (like others already suggested would be great.
I support entire idea. What a great effort DaveG. Thank you. Hope to see something similar soon.
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
Your Mockup is Fantastic DaveG !
Must have feature!
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
The mockup looks fantastic, I can't believe they haven't even started to implement this yet.
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
This is a critical issue that is keeping me from migrating several business critical reports from Excel to PowerBI. Having maintained this data for over 7 years, we followed the progression of PowerBI from it's early origins in PowerPivot, creating tons of custom measures with both complex relationships and DAX formulae in their Data Models.
RE: Measure Management & DAX Editor
What? W don't have advanced editor in Power BI? Oh come on...I was about to ditch Excel for Power Pivot and now I have to go back...
