Decimal places in reference dimensions

Is there a config option (maybe hidden) that controls the number of decimal places for reference dims that does not affect non-reference dimensions?

I need to have 4 plcs for regular dims, 3 plc for references. It's a pain to constantly change them to 3.
 
Use mapkey when you want to change a dimension into reference, on the same time change the decimal to 3 plcs.
 
default_dec_places its config option for decimal places use: "default_dec_places 2", and you´ll have 0,00

Hope it helps
 
THat affects non-reference dimensions also. Not what I want.

Since it's a reference dimension, the number of decimal places really does not matter. The entire dimension does not matter, it's just there for convenience. However, I understand the need to satisfy some corporate dictate or petty tyrant. I just change them manually since I don't use very many.
