[css-values] The length unit 'Q' (quarter of millimeter)

Hi,

I would like to propose adding a length unit, 'Q' (1Q = 0.25mm).

The unit 'Q' is very common in Japanese typesetting and
all major professional typesetting system used in Japan support
this, for example, InDesign's Japanese version uses 'Q' as font size 
unit by default setting.

I think the unit 'Q' is not only necessary for Japanese typesetting
professionals but also useful for many other people worldwide using
the international standard metric system.

See the following article for more details about 'Q':
