With your patch the will Core contain tons of hard-coded ISO2 codes. 
Could we imagine a solution where the ISO codes are stored somewhere 
else (inside a class or by eventually having a static countries table 
into the core) and the codes are handled dynamically. For the items 
array this can be achieved by calling an itemsProcFunc. For the 
typeicons I don't know if there's anything, but it would be better to 
introduce something similar to itemsProcFunc in this case rather than 
having all these ISO codes hard-coded in several places.

Cheers
