If I were requesting the feature I'd want it to be user-selectable for 1,2 or 3 decimal places for Angstrom units. For some very well-determined structures (that are small enough for easy display/viewing) it might be useful to see the distances to their full (i.e. thousandths) precision. Tenths of Angstroms is of use only for the grossest of comparisons, hundredths would be the minimum for scientific usefulness.
