Thank you for your feedback. Currently this is not in our roadmap; however, we are tracking it and if we get more feedback and votes, we may consider it in the future.
Note that the property defaulting from product category (Retail category hierarchy) has been extended in the fall release 2017, so there are now better ways to avoid incomplete configurations once a product is assigned to a Retail category. When creating products from the product by category forms, the category is mandatory to select.

Add support for EcoResCatalogControl into the “Product category attributes” entity
The table EcoResCatalogControl is associated with product attributes bound to procurement categories.

Unit of measure conversions are set up per Variant in a product. When adding a purchase line or sales line, an error is shown saying "Product variant unit conversions are not supported for this process". This should be possible.
