I think you’d be interested in the "One-by-one" or "Layout" View - #10 by helloitse feature request as well. Which is only a fraction of this feature request.
On the backend, this feels a lot like Coda’s ability to set global variables and have views & calculations filter to match those controls. In practice, I often create reporting dashboards and use a select field to change the year. All views will recalculate once the variable changes.
In the present, you can use a smart folder to easily toggle through one entity type with identical layouts - this is how I see annual reports now.
When we get the ability to create dashboard views in entities, that will also get you closer to the desired experience.
