WTH can't I turn an Area into a Dashboard automatically?

I’d love to be able to automatically or on-demand create dashboards for Areas. Going to the main dashboard and scrolllling to find the right room is tedious, and I’m too lazy to make custom dashboards.

Sounds interesting and would be nice if every area has some settings where you can enable/disable creation of dynamic dashboards like the default one but holding only entities under that area.

Workaround right now is to create a new dashboard and then you can copy the whole area card from the default one to your dashboard. Only drawback is that when you add/remove entities to your area, this copy doesn’t update.

There is a room card in HACS that might work for you

Even better, WTH do I have to manually populate dashboards would cover this and more.
