Make "Format Value" and "Scan Value" functions polymorphic

All the other string/number conversion primitives are polymorphic (i.e. can accept arrays as well as scalars), except for the "Format Value" and "Scan Value" ones.  Can we make those polymorphic, too? I hate that I have to do things like this:

I think this is a duplicate.

Agreed, Altenbach. Apparently my cursory search for this idea was insufficient. This idea can be closed as duplicate, and I have kudo'ed your original. Thanks!
