In general, I agree. In my case I needed flexibility for adding dates into
file names that the general support was not adequate for.
It's somewhat confusing to a person using IB because it is so easy to set a
custom format string. When you add a date formatter to a text field for
example, the NSDateFormatter Inspector shows you a list of formats you can
choose from and displays a custom format field. It leads you to think that
under the hood it will "just work", but it doesn't.
