This plugin has an experimental version available!
Orthogonal Measure lets you place two reference points on the map canvas to define a local coordinate system. The first point becomes the origin, the second defines the positive Y-axis direction, and the X-axis is automatically set perpendicular (90° clockwise). You can then enter X and Y offsets in metres via the dialog, click "Construct Point", and the plugin will place a marker at the computed position. All constructed points can be exported to a temporary memory layer.
