What's the best way to include model meta-data in the model?

To enable self-service users to utilise a shared dataset, I would like them to be able to see the definition of measures and calculated columns, and the relationships in the model. 

 

Has anyone found a good way to do this? 

 

Currently, I'd use DAX Studio to manually run the $system queries... save the results as a separate dataset, and import it back into the model. But it'd be much better to automate this somehow.

For the moment, I'm publishing the Vertipaq Analyzer xlsm into the shared dataset workspace. Would be nice to have a more elegant method.

@reubwork , We also use DAX studio for this purpose. This tool was shared today, see if that can help https://exceleratorbi.com.au/measure-killer-for-power-bi/
