Thanks for the tip Hans,
but the kerning in
\def\digitstimessymbol{\kern.**2\emwidth\cdot\kern.2\emwidth}
should not take place in mathmode, only in textmode. Else the space is too
big. Don't know how to deal with that.

is it possible to change the behaviour of \digits to have \cdot as in http://www.pragma-ade.com/**general/magazines/mag-0003.pdfhttp://www.pragma-ade.com/general/magazines/mag-0003.pdfpage 2 (table at the bottom) instead of \times as shown in the latest units-mkiv-document http://www.pragma-ade.com/**general/manuals/units-mkiv.pdfhttp://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/units-mkiv.pdfpages 6&7?
Seems to be hardcoded in phys-dim.mkiv for the moment: l. 173-175
\unexpanded\def\digitspower #1{\times10\phys_digits_**raised{#1}} \unexpanded\def\**digitspowerplus #1{\times10\phys_digits_**raised{\digitsplus#1}} \unexpanded\def\**digitspowerminus #1{\times10\phys_digits_**raised{\digitsminus#1}} ntextgarden.net/)
there are several ways we can deal with this:
% \def\digitstimessymbol{\**symbol[units][times]}
% \definesymbol[units][times][\**times] % \definesymbol[units][times][\**cdots] % \definesymbol[units][times][\**kern.2\emwidth\cdot\kern.2\**emwidth]
\def\digitstimessymbol{\times} \def\digitstimessymbol{\cdot} \def\digitstimessymbol{\kern.**2\emwidth\cdot\kern.2\emwidth}
\unprotect
\unexpanded\def\digitspower #1{\digitstimessymbol10\phys_** digits_raised{#1}} \unexpanded\def\**digitspowerplus #1{\digitstimessymbol10\phys_** digits_raised{\digitsplus#1}} \unexpanded\def\**digitspowerminus #1{\digitstimessymbol10\phys_** digits_raised{\digitsminus#1}}
\protect
or maybe a key/value in setuptimes .. not sure yet
