Documentation:
Allowed values for dimension Types in quantities. These are the 7 types prescribed by the SI system, together with the "dimensionless" type. We intend to be somewhat uncoventional and explore enhanced values of "dimensionless", such as "angle". This may be heretical, but we find the present system impossible to implement in many cases. Used for constructing entries in a dictionary of units
