Transformations: Add all Quickstart Models at Once Regardless of dependencies.
I ran into a problem setting up quickstart for Zendesk, where 6 models are documented, however when adding the quickstart during initial sync, it only adds 3.
I am told once the 3 are built I can go and add the other three - but I would suggest this is a confusing step to someone just starting to use the tool and an unnecessary one.
User should be able to select all 6, and simply queue the 3 that are dependent on the other 3.

Hi Zach! This is a mismatch between the docs and the actual data lineage graph, which we're exploring how to improve. In the models table in the docs, there are 6 tables listed, which are what we consider "important" tables in the package. In the actual lineage graph for the package, there are only 3 output models, or leaf nodes on the graph: ticket_backlog, ticket_summary, and sla_policies. The other 3 tables are intermediate models, included in the graphs of the output models, which is why they are not listed in the setup form.
As a user, I'm curious how you would reconcile these two data points. Show all 6 important models in the setup form, even if we only create 3 output models? Or change the docs to only show output models?
