http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/unit

Wiki: adapted. (Page created, actually, as there was none.) Using the
fancy-schmancy {{since|2012|text=nov 2012}} template, which (1) marks
this as a recent feature, and as such not in the stable yet, and
(2) sticks it in the hidden categories [Since] and [Since 2012], so
that we may review (and remove) those tags when the new stable comes
out next year.
