Allow to put cut edge as spine

To be clear, are you thinking of the style used in old Japanese or Chinese books, where each page is sort of a 'pocket' with the fold at the outer edge and the inside of the pocket blank? Best photo I could find quickly, though the bleed is bad enough that the inside almost looks printed too:

We do have #11 open but it's been kind of low priority because I think I'm the only one of the devs that does stab-binding and there hasn't really been requests for the functionality previously
