[Bug 1573118] [NEW] "units" context property is app-global

 

Public bug reported:

The "units" context property has no idea about which screen it is on,
making it impossible to have different grid unit values per window in a
single app. This would be the case, for example, when one app has
multiple windows on different screens.

We're landing a workaround for this for use in unity8 (the only case
supported today where a single app has multiple windows on different
screens).

Long-term we might need UITK 2.0 to fix this proper.
