Drill downs actually drill down in other visualizations

I'd love to see the drill down in one visualization actually drill down another separate visualization on the same page. For example, if I have a pie chart that shows sales by region and I drill down into a specific region, it would be nice for the column chart on the same page to also drill down to the next level, not just filter the visualization to one column.

It's possible bookmark drillup / drilldown settings for a whole page so that a single selection will change all the visials, and that's useful, but no way to do the same thing for multiple pages!

RE: Drill downs actually drill down in other visualizations

If I have two column charts and I drill down from monthly to weekly, I want the other column chart to also drill down to weekly. Those should be sync'ed. I would also like to see the date range on the x-axis constrict if it would go off the chart. So if I drill from year to day, then it doesn't show all the days since it is too much (only last 30 entries or something that would fit in the visual). If that is not possible, then at least have the drill downs in sync if using dates to drill.

Would love to have this.

I've just made a scatter chart and a matrix visual that contain the same hierarchy. It would be good if I could drill down on the table which would cause the same drilldown on the scatter chart.

At the moment because I have drilling filters other visuals selected, it just means that one point is visible. I then need to drill down on my scatter chart as well.
