If you mean that the flags are *currently* country flags and not 
language flags, then that is true.

Everywhere in TYPO3 the flags are used for languages; I see three solutions:

1. Create an API which can translate language codes (like the recently 
introduced 'qc') to the appropriate flag name and can translate country 
codes to the appropriate flag name

2. Use only language flags (rename everything to language codes)

3. Use two sets of flags, one for languages, one for countries

Because of the feature freeze I would say that 1. is not possible for 
4.5 (unless...). 2. seems rather strange and 3. is a bit of an overkill
