Need to be able to set user-defined "Units" default

I would like a way to set a user-defined default for the "Units" setting. I'm a yank, and we use "feet" instead of "meters" here in the states, so EVERY time I open a new Blender project, I have to go to units and set them to "Imperial."

I would like to be able to set the "Units" default in the preferences dialog to my own liking so that it defaults to "Imperial" every time I launch Blender.

  1. Open new file
  2. Change Units to Imperial
  3. File>Defaults> Save Startup File

haha I have the opposite thing in adobe illustrator and it drives me crazy...inches and CMYK, two things I avoid wherever possible. I think Blender could be better than that though 😁

This issue I think you may be able to fix with a startup file, but you might want to check out my proposal as well:

"Save as Default Value" Command
