We already have it, but in document prefs. It's a per-document setting. All unit selectors should obey it; if some don't it's a bug which should be easy to fix.
There is a bug then. If I open Inkscape, go to document prefs and change the units the only thing that changes is the ruler. All the tools stay in pixels. Can you confirm this so I can file a bug?
Changes in unit selectors only take place after you reload the document. For the unit selectors that are already displayed on your screen, it is assumed they currently show the unit you need.
Yes, I know because I work for screen too (web, video, etc.) I'm not saying to change the default units, they are fine as they are. I'm talking about giving the user a way to change that setting in a persistent manner. Default import/export resolution can be changed in that way using the preferences. Why units aren't?
Just create a document template with the units you need. There's a standard template for mm for example.
By the way, the snapping settings in a per-document basis is in my oppinion something very annoying. Everytime I start inkscape I have to change the snapping settings. Am I the only one that doesn't like it? What do you think about it?
Again, create your own template.
