We have also supported the cN envelope sizes for printing envelopes and
the id-N sizes for identity cards.
We haven't supported the JIS sizes, based on the comment that "they should
be avoided" and because we don't yet support Japanese characters, so
someone else will have to comment on their desirability.

Certainly; again these are just taken from Markus Kuhn's comprehensive
page on the subject.
