i don't have a deadline for the next cts extension, which will be based of 
current geotools2 and therefor bring an epsg database built in. i think i could 
do it within the year, but i won't guarantee that.

still it makes sense to plan ahead and i like the idea of fetching the units 
automagically. why don't you introduce a crs setting which can be used with the 
next cts extension and additionally keep a unit setting, in case the user does 
not want/can not assign a reference system.

currently there is no epsg database included in openjump. if somebody wants to 
go forward and make the appropriate geoapi/geotools libs part of openjump the 
unit autodetection could be implemented earlier.
