Inkscape doesn't save page size units in plain svg

Bug Description

Inkscape SVG:

<svg ...
   width="3.02in"
   height="3.02in"
   viewbox="0 0 271.8 271.8"

When saving as plain svg, the viewbox is stripped out and the width/height
are converted to plain units

<svg ...
   width="271.8"
   height="271.8"

I would like saving in plain svg to preserve the units and viewbox.

is this suggestion actually possible when saving as plain SVG?

This is a symptom of a bigger issue: inkscape doesn't save any dimensions in anything other than px, whether for plain SVG, or inkscape svg: see bug 168753
