Formatting of numbers in the PAfE cube viewer - 3 issues/ideas

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

First, when viewing numbers in the PAfE cube viewer, the currency notation (and Accounting) is $ (USD). Our customers have the € notation in the Windows regional settings so they would expect to see the € notation in the cube viewer.
Second, exporting the view to a Custom report, for instance, removes the currency notation and shows no sign in the Excel cells. We would expect that the notation that is set in the viewer, would be applied to the Excel cells. If not, there is double work.
Third, when using the custom format in the PAfE cube viewer, we can get a quick start by formatting values using the notation that comes close to what we want, then go to Custom format and the Custom format field is already populated. That is easier to change then. However, for some notation, the Custom format box remains empty. It would be useful to have that initial format (for instance, abbreviated numbers) then we can make changes in an easier way.
