I am currently working on some of the view code, and am using one canvas
unit == one pixel, as the GnomeCanvas uses this by default. You can
change a view's zoom factor without too much trouble though. (I should
check this code in).
As far as an EPS/postscript renderer goes, you would probably want to tell
it how much to scale by no matter what units you choose.
