I'm sure I missed plenty. These can be broadly categorized as:
 * Geographical names, with the local native kanji "spelling" as a
sidenote
 * Personal names of politicians, scientists, and artists, with their
native kanji "spelling" as a sidenote
 * Various cultural items originating in Japan (sushi, karaoke, martial
arts, companies, works of art/pop culture) with their native kanji/kana
"spelling" as a sidenote

That said, I'm still not convinced there's much usefulness in more
special codes that work on our wiki and nowhere else in the world; only
a fraction of the above use kana at all.
