Unit selection for all size fields #163

Currently, all units for size fields are directly linked to the field and which unit it is, is specified in the field description. This is not useful, because the unit varies strongly depending on the object. It would be useful if every field that contains a size specification is linked to another field where the matching size unit can be selected.

It depends which field we are talking about.
Fields that are from DarwinCore where the unit is specified in the specification must be used like that to ensure proper data integration and sharing using the standard.

Our request also relates to Managed Attributes, we had already talked about the possibility to create related fields.
