Regression in v2

The old runmanager also used to always take you to the units column to enter a unit after changing a value if the unit column was empty.

This encourages units to be specified for every global, even if they are "Arb." or "-". It provides context to numbers and avoid horrible situations where you don't know whether a time is in seconds, ms, us, etc, without looking at the code as well.
