I work on geo worldwide, what would be nice is support of two-letter country codes for geo stubs. some countries have really long names. just an idea ...
Some of the longer ones do have abbreviations (SM-geo-stub for Serbia-Montenegro, for instance), but for the most part the full name is seen as the easiest thing to remember rather than looking at a coding sheet every time. You're right that having to type things like Afghanistan-geo-stub gets to be a chore after a while, though! If you're interested, there's a full list of them at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types#Place-related.2C_by_region_-_geography. |hello?
