    A property called "Mandatory select" would be nice under "Selection Controls" for the slicer. This would enforce filtering if the underlying dataset is very big. At least one value must be selected at all times if this property is turned on.

    Without this feature, many reports and dashboards may be "broken" by user deselecting options to view "All". This must be remedied soon. Simply add a toggle to say "Mandatory Select" and many users will see immense value with it.

    Please add this function. In some circumstances, the data doesn't make sense (at all) when there is no selection.

    Very much need a single-select option, or a forced selection.

    Our data makes no sense when select all is selected. Please implement this as it is basic functionality that is desperately needed!
