Bug Description
Binary package hint: transmission
transmission measures bandwidth in KB/s. Is it in base-2 or base-10? It should use kB/s in base-10 instead following the units policy [1].

Transmission does indeed use units names KB (Which is indeed against the Ubuntu Units Policy). I've notived four places where this happens,
1) Download status bar indicator
2) Upload status bar indicator
3) Preferences -> Speed -> Download Limit
4) Preferences -> Speed -> Upload Limit
I'm attaching a screen shot that shows the four places highlighted in Red.
