No. The units showed in the "Current LVM configuration" dialog are
retrieved by using the "--units M" flag of lvm tools. The capital 'M'
here specify that the unit should be in S.I. units, same as the rest of
partman.

It's not exactly minor, IMHO: while creating a new Logical Volume, you
have to recalculate every other numbers by hand as all other components
of partman uses S.I units instead of binary units.
