Is everyone really implementing number formatting themselves?

Our library <https://github.com/splendo/kaluga|kaluga> has number formatting: <https://github.com/splendo/kaluga/blob/develop/base/src/commonMain/kotlin/text/NumberFormatter.kt>

It's quite easy to just provide the platform number formatting via `expect`

It is an alternative, but if it was available on the common module by default it would be much better

I think formatting is a bit tricky as all the underlying platforms have implementation differences. So it probably would have to be a new library that was pure kotlin. It's a similar problem for date formatting. 

But yes it would be great.

Unfortunately in `jsMain` you seem to just return the default `toString()` result
