Great!

 - Are succesive per's always to be collapsed? 10 a/b/c or 10 a/bc?

Well, I was thinking about that last night. Technically, yes: one is only 
supposed
to have one per or / in a unit, and any subsequent ones have no effect.

But actually I now think that if an author wants that, there may be reasons, so 
let's leave it as it is. Then you can actually write

\starttext
It is correct that 
\unit{1 metre per second per second} is
\unit{1 metre per second second} and is also
\unit{1 metre per square second}.
\stoptext

 - I'll see what I can do with multiple units.

Thanks. Not an urgent one for me.

I'm thinking about the numeric formatting capability now ... I will write 
something
and send to the list for comment.

That should work in the copy I sent you (at least minutes and seconds do).

 Hi,

 I uploaded a new beta. The usual fixes (as reported to/suggested on this 
 list) and an updated unit mechanism. I'll also upload the new (but yet 
 incomplete) units manual.

Thanks from me too. Yes, I think we are pretty close with this. A few problems 
(and possible enhancements) are detailed in the attached (source and pdf). 
(Hans: this supersedes the one I sent you privately).
