Workaround(s)
Currently, DAX's FORMAT function returns text. It would be really helpful to have the hability to dynamically format a measure without changing it's data type (something like FORMAT_STRING in MDX/SSAS MD).

Proposed Solution

Be able to do dynamic formatting of a DAX measure using something like FORMAT, without changing it's datatype, hence not losing it's aggregatable features and potentiating code-reuse.
