Default format zip codes in Excel

When entering data in an Excel spreadsheet, any zip codes that begin with
zero, such as mine "03301" drop the leading zero. Why can't one of the
formatting options be a zip code format that deals with the fact that you
need to change the format to text (which doesn't always work)?
