When you use est+, what units are the ranges in?  For example, I did
1d-2d and then another which was 40:00 and got a very different result
than doing 5d instead of 40:00.  I also tried with use 40h-40h and 5d-5d
and 40:00-40:00.  Are ranges unit-less and I just have to be careful to
always use the same unit?

"est+" expects numbers without units, e.g., "1-2".

Thanks again!  Is supporting units something that is viewed as a bad idea
or a feature that nobody has had the time to develop?  I ask so I don't
waste my time if I try and develop it.

Actually, I was wrong. `org-columns--summary-estimate' calls
`string-to-number' so "1d" is equivalent to "1" and "1d-2d" is
equivalent to "1-2". Though the unit is simply ignored.

I think nobody thought about implement it. It shouldn't be too
difficult, all is in `org-columns--summary-estimate'.

Regards,
