Extend Format Function to allow color in format code like in Excel. This would allow far more expressive conditional formatting in formulas. Take it a step further and add codes for bolding, italics and other formatting types. This would allow full flexibility in formatting of reports such as bolding certain rows, etc. Simple change - HUGE benefits! The finance community will thank you greatly!
EXAMPLE:
=FORMAT(1, "[[RED]] #") //formats number as red
=FORMAT(1, "[[#ff0000]] #") //formats number as red (using hex code)
=FORMAT(1, "[[RED;BOLD]] #") //formats number as red and bolds

This will make automation of standard reports so much easier where only certain values in a sentence needs to change each time the report is run, it would make creation of standardised reports (employee/supplier/product reviews etc..) simple to produce at the click of a slicer without having to make multiple edits and once the spelling is checked on the final version, all versions will be consistent
