Well, she's been a hell of a lot more than just DS9 (mostly TV and too
numerous for me to mention here), but she is not in GREASE. You're probably
thinking of Didi Conn.
You should check out the TREK ACTOR'S OTHER WORK FAQ or whatever it is called
next time it's posted for Visitor's other work.

Sorry; Frenchie was played by Didi Conn. If I'm remembering right that
Visitor is about 30, incidentally, that would have made her about 13 when
"Grease" was filmed -- far too young. (Well, not too young for the part, but
too young to be acting in the film, given the ages of everyone *else* they
cast. :-) )

I believe Visitor is 36, give or take a year. You may be thinking of Farrell,
who is either 29 or just turned 30.

Twice. The episode you describe is D.O.A. MACGYVER. In the other, HELLFIRE,
she battles an oil fire.

I also recently saw her, not on MacGyver, but on Matlock. She played one
of those people with a multiple personality disorder, where one of the
personalities commits a crime and the others are innocent. She was very
good. Rene Auberjonois (don't know if I spelled that right) and John de
Lancie have also made cameos on Matlock.
Other Trek actors I've caught on Matlock:
Jonathan Frakes - before TNG started, very young looking Jon.
Gyneth (sp?) Walsh - played the very beautiful wife of the guy that did
the crime, but she's having an affair with a senator. She's a high
government official in this ep (I just saw it recently). Gyneth
plays B'etor, I belive, but maybe she's L'ursa.
The actress (whose name I don't recall) who played Tasha's sister
Eshara was a young legal student who was the one "who done it".
I haven't seen Rene or Nana or John - guess I'll just have to keep
watching Matlock :-)

She appeared in two MacGyver episodes. The one you described above is
called MacGyver DOA and she also appeared in the episode Hellfire where
she is still a blond helping her husband to become rich from oil. Both
of them are quite good.
