Dynamically labeling fields in dashboard widgets

Like in Report Studio report there is an ability to have an expression for a column label, the same feature is necessary in dashboards. For example in our case Company AR Dashboard has summary widgets with values. Labels for those summary widgets should change dynamically based on a company code. For example for some companies labels would be: Current, Future, 30 Days, 60 Days, 90 days, for other companies it would be Current, Future, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, 28 days and so on. Those numbers of days are stored on a database and we should be able to use an expression to generate labels on a dashboard. Currently we can't deploy Company AR dashboard to any of our clients because without a dynamic labeling this dashboard is simply incorrect. All of our clients are impacted. There is no current workaround.
