[Bf-funboard] Local View Coordinates = Local Coordinates of active object

[Campbell Barton]

User-coordinate-system would be nice to have.

But this feature would be good to have outside of Local-View too.

If we have UCS I can imagine it might be nice to have the option to
set a temp UCS when entering... but dont think it should be enforced,
Since you may enter Local-View with multiple objects and don't
necessarily want to use a single one for the UCS.
