Suggestion from the peanut gallery: Might this be an opportunity to move away from having CF's documentation of supported units as simply "whatever UDUnits supports"? It has always struck me as odd that a standard that takes such pains to be precise about certain aspects of what constitutes valid metadata just completely punts (to an entirely separate tool with no standards body behind it) with regards to valid units. And having just spent significant time trying to understand whether "Celsius" is and should be a valid unit (it is), some verbiage describing valid unit strings would IMO be much better than having to install and run a separate tool.
