any requests on what sizes we should include? currently for ISO sizes we
only define A0-A4.

I've never seen these sizes with decimals (my usual sources: [1],[2]), so I actually think that they are defined rounded to mm.

From reference [1]:

"The actual millimeter dimensions in the standard have been calculated by progressively rounding down any division-by-two result, as the small program iso-paper.c demonstrates. This guarantees that two A(n+1) pages together are never larger than an An page."

And the results of compiling and running iso-paper.c are:
(looks like a nice complete set of sizes to include!)

4A0 = 1682 mm x 2378 mm
2A0 = 1189 mm x 1682 mm
 A0 =  841 mm x 1189 mm
 A1 =  594 mm x  841 mm
 A2 =  420 mm x  594 mm

 A4 =  210 mm x  297 mm
 A5 =  148 mm x  210 mm
 A6 =  105 mm x  148 mm
 A7 =   74 mm x  105 mm
 A8 =   52 mm x   74 mm
 A9 =   37 mm x   52 mm
A10 =   26 mm x   37 mm

 B0 = 1000 mm x 1414 mm
 B1 =  707 mm x 1000 mm
 B2 =  500 mm x  707 mm
 B3 =  353 mm x  500 mm
 B4 =  250 mm x  353 mm
 B5 =  176 mm x  250 mm

 B7 =   88 mm x  125 mm
 B8 =   62 mm x   88 mm
