The Idea is to create a repeater charting component with horizontal and vertical repeat but enables to embed existing charts within (ex. KPI card listing, multi-guage listing etc...)

RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
Need a repeater for tables too.
RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
This is absolutely essential in many scenarios. Closest thing I can currently think of in Power BI is using the Infographic Designer visual to repeat a "layout" by columns/rows, and this is actually providing the closest experience to a "repeater" component I have found so far. But still, with the Infographic Designer you cannot for example include and repeat buttons (maybe dynamically linked to bookmarks or doing actions), or slicers, or mouse-hover effects. Still a long way to go on this.
RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
This would be extremely useful!
It could be done similarly to how Tooltips/Drillthrough work:
1. build a new page, configure it to act as a repeater item, and configure the attribute to repeat on (like drillthrough attributes)
2. drop a repeater into another page, configure the horizontal/vertical layout, and select the repeater page

a must needed from power bi who wanted to switch from legacy cognos.
RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
Similar as putting a graph in a tablix in reporting services. I voted!
RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
This is the BIGGEST weakness in Power BI and the reason I have had to skip it for multiple projects.

Essential
RE: Repeater for Power BI Charts
Yep. I did this with Cognos but now cannot meet the customer's expectations with Power BI.

A repeating container for visuals would unlock some amazing opportunities to extend visuals. In Tableau, I can create a score card by adding a bar, sparkline and KPI indicator to a repeating table. I can also do this in SSRS by placing visual report items in a table or matrix but I can't do this in Power BI.
