There is code in the binder to prevent writing
ForAll( DS, Remove( DS, ThisRecord.Id ) ). However, it only works for data sources, not global variables that hold tables. Which is particularly problematic because collections in Canvas apps have moved from data sources to variables and no longer have this protection.To fix this introduces a breaking change to Power Fx V1. A new feature EnhancedIterationChecks has been added with the Base version of the PR sequence to control this behavior. Existing Power Fx V1 hosts will see no change. New hosts should include this new feature which is bundled with Power Fx V2.
