Current state of handling SI units in pandoc

Current state of handling SI units in pandoc

I am progressing with creating filter that inserts non-breakable spaces in 
text according to common typografic rules. One of them is to insert 
non-breakable space in front of number quantifying some entity ("chapter 
9", "page 100", etc ...) but that is kind of contradictory to how should be 
handled units: In case of numbered expression with an unit should be 
non-breakable space inserted after the number ("100 kPa", "10 m").

As far as I know, in LaTeX this is dealt with by means of `siunitx` 
package. Does `pandoc` in any way emulate that behaviour, or is there an 
filter for that already (I have thought there is, but I am actually having 
trouble finding it now).

Thank you for any information in this.

Regards, Tomas

The LaTeX reader can parse most siunitx commands.
But there's nothing like this for other formats.

I suspected so. Thank you for clarification.
