I agree we don't need to directly support CC-0.

AIUI, that "license" is basically for jurisdictions that don't have a
public domain, or for which it is not easy to put something into the
public domain -- surprisingly, there are quite a few of those. However,
it's fine for us to just use PD; that captures the author's intent, and
if they want to include a COPYING file that has the CC-0 text, they can.
