I hope Power BI can somehow integrate custom number formatting in the desktop version.
Thank you.

It looks like the latest version of Report Server included the ability for "modeling" an actual number rather than just a measure, so now I can add a thousands separator everywehere I need to without having a duplicate field just for that.
This has definitely moved forward a long way, although not quite as far as asked for.
