After some thought the extended format string seems better to me, it
could be some separate package as that sort of need is not SES
specific, and SES would check if the package is installed or not and
use extended format strings if the package is installed.
That would be a parameter in the sheet whether is uses extended format
strings. So when you share a sheet using extended format with somebody
else that do not have a extended formats, they would receive some
warning that they need to install the package.
