We would like the ability to choose the types of visual available to users in Q&A
The main reason for this is to avoid Q&A being abused by users looking to export row level data from a dataset. As Q&A accesses everything in the dataset, a user can structure a question in such a way as to expose the entire set of columns to be returned in a table. The automatic suggestions also do this sometimes, leading to a poor user experience.
At the very minimum we'd like to be able to toggle only graph/chart based visuals to be enabled and table style visuals to be disabled. This would ensure only aggregated data could be exported from the dataset as that is the setting we enforce on all reports.
Not having this feature means we'll keep Q&A disabled on our datasets, which is a shame.
