Comment (by aldeck):
Sorry to comment this late, but i think it would be preferable to change
things the other way around, that is, keeping the KB, MB notation but use
power of ten values. So that we are S.I compliant and at the same time use
more meaningful values for users. Ideally it could be a global setting for
"data size" formatting just like number formatting or monetary formatting
so that people can keep "kilobyte era" habits if they really want to.
