Hi Thomas,

RM function to retrieve a magnitude expressed as a particular unit.

from my previous email ...

I think we could add something at reference model level to say give me
this quantity in 'x' units, performing the conversion at server level
where possible or return null. This could also be supported in AQL
since it would just be another RM attribute/function?

magnitude.inUnit['mg']

I think this is, roughly speaking, what FHIR is doing
