Comment (by annakrat):

 Replying to [comment:1 pvanbosgeo]:
 > If opting for the second option, I would suggest, if possible, to
 include the option to set value in meters as well, or more in general, to
 include the option to set the unit.

 I don't think that's necessary here, ideally max_distance should be in the
 map units, that's what everybody would expect, setting specific units just
 for max_distance doesn't add much to the usability in my opinion.
