--- Comment #14 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
I disagree with a central setting. The use cases for Writer/Calc/Draw/Impress
are very different. Someone might use pt in Writer, because font related things
use pt, whereas in Draw he wants mm to get maximal possible precision visible.
In Calc he might want to use inch to be compatible with Excel, used by his
partner in USA, and in Impress unit cm might be appropriate for him to quickly
recognize sizes.

The measure unit is stored in the file. The unit in Tools > Options > ... >
General is coupled with the unit of the current active document. Only that the
unit which was last set in the dialog is used for new documents.
