teTeX already has more:

$ grep ^@\+ src/Packages/origtetex/tetex-texmf-3.0/dvips/config/config.ps | grep -v %%
@+ letter
@+ legal
@+ ledger
@+ 11x17
@+ a6
@+ a5
@+ a4
@+ a3
@+ a2
@+ a1
@+ a0
@+ b6
@+ b5
@+ b4
@+ b3
@+ statusdict /setpageparams known { hsize vsize 0 1 statusdict begin {
@+ setpageparams } stopped end } { true } ifelse { statusdict /setpage known
@+ { hsize vsize 1 statusdict begin { setpage } stopped pop end } if } if

So there's a0, a1 and a2
