Popular spreadsheets don't (as far as I know) really allow you to keep units around. So if your app could include them and do the kind of automatic conversions I'm talking about, maybe it would be great!
That would be pretty cool, though I would need a lot more knowledge of units to really make it work. Linux and alikes have a units command line tool that knows all sorts of obscure units, so I'd have a lot of work to do, plus letting users define their own, like "chimps per kWh" or something. Thankfully, in dimensional analysis, most of the units don't need to be physically realizable!
