Being able to annotate numbers with units might be a generally useful
feature for QML. The obvious use cases are distances and positions.
Another use case are timer and animation intervals. Finally I am
thinking of this industrial touch UI demo we show at trade shows. The
QML based DSL driving it would benefit greatly if one could easily
express the physical unit of each number (ampere, newton, meters, ...)
and if one could preserve this information during calculations.
Of course I am going slightly off-topic with this thoughts...
Ciao,
