Seems a bit of a tautology. I don't think there's an "empress" version.

I imagine there's a similar word for 
"Empress Emeritus" too.

Washington Post:
Naruhito’s much-loved father Akihito, who 
is now known as Emperor Emeritus, 
abdicated in a similar ceremony in the 
same room on Tuesday in the first such 
succession in Japan in two centuries.
  Comments:
I got no hits for a search for "Emperor 
Emeritus" in the dictionary. Should the 
word perhaps be added to an already 
existing entry (上皇?)? And/o
r should 上皇陛下 be a new entry with this 
definition?
