SI and metric units for Ang vel and Ang accl should be in rad/s while Eng can be in deg/s

There is another option for angle units in the setting panel. Are we sure we want to link global units with angle units?

Whether it is SI unit or metric, the unit of angular velocity and angular acceleration should be rad/s and rad/s^2 irrespective of whether the angle measurement is deg or radian. The "degree" or "radian" selection is affecting the angle only. In English unit, it can be deg/s for ang vel and deg/s^2 for ang acceleration.
