The widget can already do that, there's no need for a new API. I was
refering to Bolsh's suggestion to change the layout of the
GimpSizeEntry widget. Please try to read the mails more carefully
before you reply.

The point here is that the unit conversion feature is very useful in
the New Image dialog. I am using it almost everytime I create a new
image and I would definitely be missing it a lot. So far I haven't
heard any good argument for removing it except that users might be
surprised the very first time they discover that it works this way.
That's IMO not a valid argument to remove a very useful feature.
