Allow the Page Builder to specify some "key" dashboard in a top header bar

REQUEST: allow the Page Builder to specify some “key” dashboards. They would sit, like a header, at the top of every page.
Perhaps these could be set by role? Or at the category level?

If we use Categories I could even see this as a better way to expose the main steps in a process:

PB selects a few Categories and sets a checkmark on them, denoting that they should show up in the header bar
PB can select or provide icons for each category
From within each Category the PB can select specific dashboards that they want associated with this header bar icon
1. If there is only one dashboard selected (could be the key/home dashboard for that category) then a click on the icon takes them to the DB directly.
2. If the PB selects multiple dashboards then a click on the icon shows a drop-down menu with just those selected dashboards

This would have the benefits of:

Grouping dashboards for specific process loops (but still allowing a category to have other dashboards)
Giving an at-a-glance view of the various business processes the User can/must do
Might allow for progress to be shown (perhaps the colors of the icons could have conditional formatting? Or use DCA (can't start that process until...)

Another direction: allow the PB to "create" these Icon Groups, separate from Categories.

This would allow the PB to develop a set of dashboards to accomplish a business process, regardless of category.

Extend Color Palette (Assets) Functionality to Font/Text Formatting in NUX
The Color Palette under Assets only applies to charts, but it’d be awesome if we could use it for font and text colors in NUX. It’s a bit tricky to remember or copy hex codes every time, and this would make pages so much easier to style and keep on-brand. A small change with a big visual impact!
Model Map - Exporting Functionality
While the Model Map functionality already exists in Anaplan, it becomes difficult to navigate when working with large models. I would like to see enhanced support for full export capabilities of the model schema (DISCO). This would greatly streamline documentation efforts and save time when capturing model status across…
Better communication regarding platform changes
I'd like to request implementing a formal notification system for upcoming platform changes and updates. This would be incredibly valuable for the Anaplan community for several reasons: Real Impact Example:Recently (Sept 2025), an unannounced Cloudworks change restricted .csv000 file imports. This resulted in: Failed…
