Hi Levin,
I always wanted this to be configurable, but used to have a strange
time zone problem with this. Your patch made me look again, and I
think I now understand what the problem was, and it is fixed now.
So I am implementing a slightly different version of you patch.
The new variable org-agenda-format-date can be a format string for
format-time-string, or it can be a function just like you describe it.
This will be in 5.09.
Thanks!

I have a special need of customizing date string in agenda (the date
format
string is even not enough because I'd like other date format than
Gregorian).
So I add a custom variable org-agenda-date-string-function,
bind it to org-agenda-date-string to preserve current org behaviour.
Then in my org conf file, I add:
(defun my-org-agenda-date-string (date)
(...))
(setq org-agenda-date-string-function 'my-org-agenda-date-string)
Hope it helps.
