When deleting a Data Product in Purview the following error appears

Request failed with status code 400 Request ID: c69de495-90b6-432e-a1c1-c82f85a12996 DataProduct with id ffc261c0-b52e-492f-8e66-8b1a8709d66f referenced by other entities cannot be deleted. Please delete the referenced entities first, in order to successfully delete the DataProduct. Referenced by: DataAsset: [fc993fab-b8f7-426f-aaa8-68fc27943974]. If you cannot access the referenced entities, please contact others with the appropriate permissions to remove the references.

The error appears even after deleting data quality results and any other suspected dependencies. The error gives the id of the offending dependency but not a URL to locate what it is.

Can Purview be improved to 1) Show a modal listing the problematic dependencies by name with URLs to follow, and 2) allow the user to select a cascading delete that deletes the dependencies as well?
