unless the steerer is butted, all standard ISO and JIS steerers have the same wall thickness. the OD is 25.4mm and they all use a 22.2mm quill stem. (french and several other bikes differ)
if you really wanted, you can thread a threadless fork that uses the same size tubing. there will be no issues other than rolled vs cut threads but frame builders have been cutting threads without issue for years.
