VBA in Power BI would help us in developing, debugging and analysis enormously. For many, having the ability to examine and process result on reports would shorten and possibly simplify otherwise comples statements.

Asked Amanda and Adam about this in a Q&A at the Power BI conference in Dallas, sounds like this is a no-go.

RE: VBA for Power BI Desktop

It is interesting that VBA has retained strong support from the user community despite talks of it being deprecated. The reason is that VBA provides amazing functionality and yet is easy to get started with (e.g. VBA.Msgbox). Built into PowerBI and the potential application would be exponential - ad-hoc data cleansing (based on rules), analytics, visualisation > publication.
