"Image Properties" dialog in inches?

Using Gimp 2.6.10 (Windows).

So, I have set my image to Inches in the dropdown in the main window, and also in the Image --> Print Size menu, but the Image --> Image Properties dialog displays the print size in mm. I find this particularly odd since the Resolution _is_ listed in ppi (pixels per Inch).

Is there any way to change that?

The dialog uses the default unit for your locale. I have no idea though how you can change that on Windows. Perhaps it would indeed make more sense to use the image display unit here.
