Let me vote for that bug, as I think inkscape should not implicitly make
a relative unit an absolute one. A default is very okay, let's say 90dpi
or anything else. But the SVG-standard also emphasizes the "px" unit as
"user unit", therefore relative and negotiable.

So by allowing absolute units (cm, in, em, pt...), SVG is indeed capable
of designing "fixed"-sized elements, where sizes and zooms have to be
interpretede by different software. mixing absolute/relative units may
cause bad things to your SVGs when displaying them with different soft-
and hardware.
