When using binning by datetime, an option to condense year, quarter and month labels on visualisations

At present when using a date binning function on the categorical axis, the period labels are shown below each other in a hierarchical way.

Jan, Feb, Mar

-> Q1

-> 2018

Sometimes with multiple visualisations there is not enough space to show all of the label breakdowns of the date parts.

I propose an option to concatenate the date parts into one label for example Apr, Q1, 2018

I believe this can be achieved using a calculated column but by doing this the column order needs to be set manually, which does not work when you have data that refreshes with new date periods on a regular basis.
