There is a Units extension that can be used to define
units for ports
(linked from the spec page, I think) and the core spec has scalePoints,
which allows plugins to define labeled port values (e.g. "0 dB" for the
multiplier value 1.0 on a simple gain plugin).
The extension looks very good, but I would recommend adding two
important units - semitone and cent (in case anyone doesn't know, a cent
= 1/100 of a semitone). Semitones - useful for osc transpose in synths,
as well as shift amount in pitch shift modules. Cents - useful for
relative detune in synths. I think those are much more common than, say,
miles :)
