I wouldn't be surprised if similar practices exist in other non-English speaking countries

I'm afraid we don't have the resources to cover common practices in languages other than English, even if these languages use Latin-letter abbreviations that may have been derived from English originally. This sort of thing is better addressed by CLDR <http://cldr.unicode.org/>, which has a mandate to cover time zone abbreviations in non-English locales.
