Thanks. I have some thoughts about that:

* The validator allows to enter "10em", but the value is then changed
after application to "10cm". Not good. A special validator would need
to be set up for this task.

* I actually think some of the removed values are quite useful in the
given case: ex and em are best to estimate a good line length related
to the font size (which is, typographically, the most sensible
measure). I also think the pt-related units (sp, bp, pt etc.) are quite
sensible here. And finally, I don't see why cm is there, but mm
removed.
Generally speaking, I doubt whether removing any of these measures is
worth the effort.

Meanwhile, I have added you to the credits. Welcome aboard!
