Or, much the same way it already recognizes links and parses them, etc... if could recognize MPG or L/100KM and have a module that automatically translates it to MPG(L/100KM) in that type of display.

Not sure just how do-able that is, though.

Or recognize either term and turn it into a link that goes to the calculator with the data already input. I suppose that would work, too.
