Citroen Have less lining on the trailing shoe on the back of the old DS. From memory it's about 2/3 the length of a full lining, all at the cam end.
I think this is to ensure that the trailing shoe wears at the same speed as leading. Normally the leading shoe wears faster so limiting braking effort.
I've though about trying something similar on my car but think it might but undue strain on the cast shoes.
