The MultiBit HD view is that this is a locale-sensitive pr= esentation issue. As a result we offer a simple configuration panel giving = pretty much every possible combination: icon, m+icon,=C2=A0=C2=A0=CE=BC+icon, BTC, mBTC,=C2=A0=C2=A0=CE=BCBTC, XBT, mXBT,=C2=A0=C2=A0= =CE=BCXBT,=C2=A0sat=C2=A0along with settings for leading/trailing sy= mbol, commas, spaces and points. This allows anyone to customise to meet th= eir own needs beyond the offered default.=C2=A0

We apply the NIST guidelines for representation of SI unit s= ymbols (i.e no conversion to native language, no RTL giving icon+m etc).
Right now MultiBit HD is configured to use m+icon taken fr= om the Font Awesome icon set. However reading earlier posts it seems that= =C2=A0=CE=BC+icon is more sensible.=C2=A0

Let us know what you'd like.

Resurrecting this topic. =C2=A0Bitcoin Wallet moved to mBTC several weeks ago, which was disappointing -- it sounded like the consensus was
uBTC, and moving to uBTC later --which will happen-- may result in
additional user confusion, thanks to yet another decimal place
transition.
