It should be possible to define specific date formats per visual, because dependent on the usage in a visual different formats may be appropriate. I find it very counter-intuitive that a date format should be valid for a complete report file.

RE: Visual-specific date formatting

I agree, another example may be how month or day of week are rendered. in some visuals we want to see the full month name, other visuals we may want it truncated to just the first 3 characters of the month name. Once again, it seems counter intuitive to have to either create an additional column just to have different formats, or some sort of measure with a different format.
