I would love to have a feature that would search a given table by a field or set of fields to find and surface duplicate rows. It would then be great to be able to take a pre-defined action on duplicated rows such as delete, or merge. Dealing with dupes is always a pain with large data sets or importing new data into a set where some records may already exist. A way to deal with dupes in a somewhat automated way would be really helpful.

Looks like @Kamille_Parks beat me to the community forum announcement — the Dedupe block is now officially launched and available to all Pro users! You can install it right now from the blocks gallery.
