I also think that this should be a low-priority item. I like the idea of being able to code the conversion as an external utility.

Given that, I would think that any form of measurement could benefit from this type of arbitrary conversion mechanism:
- Distance: How many rods in a furlong?
- Time: How many jiffies in a dog year?
- Weight: How many pennyweights in a Troy ounce?

(Those are - or were - real units of measurement. In an RPG, of course, the list of possibilities is endless.)
