I can confirm that setting the locale under 'Language Settings' changes the
default measurement units for the program, however setting the application
(Calc, Writer, ...) locale does not change the units in the print dialogue - it
seems to only look at the 'Language Settings', not the application specific
settings. 
Agreed - Not necessarily a bug. This may be by design so that 'print' dialogue
is unaffected by application setting and always shows print size according to
locale. Seeing page sizes in 'point' or 'pica' may not be desirable.
Marking as 'Resolved'
