Meh.  Doing this strikes me as a serious documentation failure, since it
is no longer apparent what happens if you put in a unitless number.

Now, if we were to change the server so that it *refused* settings that
didn't have a unit, that argument would become moot.  But I'm not going
to defend the castle against the villagers who will show up if you do
that.
