Re: Converting documents from US Survey units

Allowing a proper conversion is good for sure, however I think FS#2272 (https://www.qcad.org/bugtracker/index.php?do=details&task_id=2272) should still be implemented: Converting is not always an option, sometimes you want/need to keep within the given system.
