More flexibility regarding format of import file
At the moment Board is quite limited regarding the format of import files, as one column per entity and just one column containing values are required → Table on the left side of the screenshot.

Defining Temporary cubes "on the fly"
When I write a procedure, I find it tedious to define a temporary cube when I want to implement/change a data flow. In particular I dislike that I have to leave the procedure, define the temporary cube and open the procedure again.
