Planning Aanalytics for Excel ROll up to 1 Ancestor functionality

Hi, my internal customers and myself realise that using the SET editor in Planning Analytics Excel we are unable to do a Roll up whereby we want to see just ONE ancestor of a chosen element.
At the moment, the Set editor has the option of showing ALL ANCESTORS by clicking on the "ANCESTORS" button but most of the time we do not want to see the entire hierarchy. We just want to see the preceding parent. Now we do not have a choice because everytime we click on insert "ancestors" then everything appears. Can the developers please add in the option to just insert the preceding ancestor only?
OR to have the same functionality as the Subset editor in perspectives whereby in the left OR right pane of the set editor I can select an element and do a gradual roll up ancestor by ancestor until I find the one I Want?

    We will add support for a Show parent gesture in the new PAW set editor (PAW 2.0.71+). The new set editor will be supported for PAfE in Q2/3 2022.
