I've heard requests for Pantone during my tenure here, tho. In Germany and other parts of Europe, HKS and RAL are at least as common and important as PMS. Other countries, e.g. Japan and even the US, may have other national or regional industry standards that would be worthy of consideration, too. Some of them might even have fewer IP problems. RAL Design is almost directly compatible with `lch()` (just in HCL order) and thus can be converted to L*a*b* easily, but the more popular RAL Classic cannot and neither can HKS. There are official software converters for both, though: <http://www.ral-farben.de/en/PRODUCTS-SHOP/RAL-DIGITAL/> and <http://www.hks-farben.de/en_us/products/creative-toool-hks-3000-018/> respectively.
