No, I mean Visual Composition Framework (it's a Gartner name). It is drag and drop components just like Rapid Miner, Alteryx, KNIME or Azure ML. However the tools that perform those things now are standalone and I have to switch between 5 or so different tools to get my job done.

Kind of like SQL Server Integration Services but instead of SQL Server, target Azure ML.

Aha, my bad. Yes, for certain scenarios it makes sense to have a drag/drop paradigm, for some a REPL++ like Jupyter, and sometimes an Editor. That's exactly why we decided to integrate Jupyter w Azure ML. This is going the other way around and makes total sense. The ideal as you've noted is figuring out how to integrate the three canvases intelligently so that you don't have to "alt-tab" between disjoint worlds constantly. Meanwhile I've added it to the feature list:
