Column Formatting of Zip Codes, Phone Numbers

I'd like to be able to choose a preformatted Zip Code column type, as well as a preformatted phone number column type.  

 

Currently, any Zip Codes that start with "0" (as in, the entire New England region) get messed up in that column - because "zero" isn't recognized as an initial number (so - it wouldn't have to be a zip code specific column type, just one that recognizes "0" can legitimately start a series of numbers!).  The work around has been either to add a dash "-" after the affected zip codes, or do a look-up and add the Zip+4...

 

A (xxx) xxx-xxxx formatted column would be really great for North American telephone numbers! 

 

Thanks!!!
