I ran into this problem just now with 0.18dev-15619 on Windows Conda build. Kind of hard to draft anything in feet and inches... Bump.

@yorik will this make it in to 0.18 or bumped to 0.19?

It seems possible already (the sketcher has one), but haven't looked at how they did it yet.. Let's bump it to 0.19

@ctjctj can confirm
After setting imperial units I still see:
Preferences > Draft > 'Text and Dimensions'
the units for the preferences are in mm
