I'm unsure which block you are talking about: I see there are two
blocks that refer to rot things: in_rot_quaternion_raw and
in_rot_from_north_xxx_raw.

Looking at the 1st one description, it looks very specific to
quaternions to me; the 2nd seems very specific to its own thing,
whatever it is.. So I would just add the missing information (unit) in
the new block just being introduced, if this is ok for you. Or am I
missing some other block in which I could  coalesce this new euler
thing?
