I haven't heard the term commensurability, but I vaguely recall reading something about calibrating volumetric glassware by weight. I've never had to do it, though.
According to a book I'm reading (Statistics and Chemometrics for Analytical Chemists), instrumental sources of error tend to overwhelm glassware error so that error from glassware becomes negligable. However, I'm generally disappointed if the RSD of my HPLC run is more than 0.2%, so I'm not sure about that. In my lab, the use of 1 mL volumetric pipets is discouraged.
The book does say that "with all precautions taken" you can get RSD's a low as 0.01% from wet chemistry, which is pretty impressive but probably overkill for most applications.
