   **Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
   This feature request is related to 
https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/17201.
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   When user creates a chart, they can pick one or more metrics from dataset. 
With time passing by, or same dataset shared with different groups of users, 
dataset itself may be changed. In airbnb we found many cases that some metrics 
used by certain charts, which are not aware by other users, are deleted 
unintentionally. Later when a user open an old chart which contains these 
metrics, the whole chart is kind of broken. 
https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/17201 fixed UI issue. It unblock user 
to see the chart with valid metrics. But the invalid metric data is still in 
the Slice entity.
   
   Ideally, Superset should let user know which piece of data is not valid 
anymore, and ask user to take action to clean up this bad data
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**
   https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/17201 fixed UI issue so that unblock 
user to see the chart with valid metrics.
   
   **Additional context**
   This issue has been in Superset for a long time: 
https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/16719, 
https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/14034.
