Improve formatting documentation discoverability

3

Currently you need to know to dig all the way into one of the quantity type aliases (e.g. [`Acceleration`](https://docs.rs/uom/0.22.1/uom/si/acceleration/type.Acceleration.html#method.format_args)) or view the documentation for one of the types in the...

InformationRate * Time = Information != Ratio

1

I'm pretty new to this library, but I think I found a bug concerning multiplication of different quantities. Multiplying `InformationRate` and `Time` should result in `Information`, at least I would...

2

Suppose we have a length stored in `u32`. How could I convert its storage type to `f64`? So far it can be done by this unsafe way: ```rust let u32length...

Display mechanism with automagic unit selection

1

As far as I can see (but maybe I missed something), uom's `Quantity`does not implement `Display`, and its `Debug` impl has a very basic unit selection logic. For example, debug-printing...

Checked Quantity::new?

2

`Quantity::new` method can panic if conversion into the base unit fails. E.g. with this code, where `Information` quantity is backed by a `u64` type ``` let value = kbytes.parse::()?; let...

Support references to other units in a unit's conversion factor

Support references to other units in a unit's conversion factor. via #31 For unit aliases it would be cool if the following were possible: @bit: prefix!(none) / 8.0; "b", "bit",...

More examples and better doc

12

It's would be nice to see more examples (and probably better documented). For example: https://github.com/iliekturtles/uom/blob/master/examples/base.rs#L10-L16 could contain copy from [doc](https://docs.rs/uom/0.19.0/uom/macro.ISQ.html) or just link ```rust mod cgs { // [ More...
