Very nice!  People using TeXLive without any extra CJK fonts should
replace

  \CJKfamily{goth}%

with

  \CJKfamily{min}%

to make it compilable out of the box.

Yep.  I no longer can remember why I haven't done this further.

You could also take an OpenType font from, say, Microsoft, and look at
the `vert' (or `vrt2') table with FontForge (-> displaying AAT ->
OpenType -> GSUB -> ...) to see what they do.
