If you want to get fancy there are other systems that use six inks Toyo for isntance. But as Chris Wilson said, the real solution is to use CSS that already allows for hex, decimal, and percentages. It also has a syntax that can be extended to support things like Pantone, Toyo, CMYK or whatever other color system meets your fancy.
