If it's possible to communicate that in a way that it doesn't add
to confusion I'm all for it but I can't figure out a way that is
deterministic without *requiring* every country take on the responsibility
for their zone.  If that's what everyone else thinks is good I'll shut
up about it. :-)  I'm just trying to take the end-users' guesswork out
of figuring out where to send the request.
