David spent the last few weeks making a documented table of "essentially all known units" along with conversions between them, definitions of them, etc. Then we wrote code to automate conversions, automate creating symbolic variables corresponding to them, etc. It's all in a Sage worksheet, so not posted or ready to use in Sage via a patch yet.
