Is there any functionality to create lists of countries based on the ISO
country list at present, or any plans to do so? 

E-Commerce sites we work on tend to require this rather long list of
countries, ideally trimmed down to the relevant countries, when customers
enter their address.

Another requirement is when calculating postage we group countries into
regions like UK, Europe, or Rest of World. Certain preset groups exist,
though the ability to create your own country groups is very useful.

If this doesn't exist at present I'd be interested in working on this. Any
thoughts on where it should reside. Or is this more the case of extending
Zend_Locale ?

The ISO list is available at:

x.html
And geographical regions at:

best wishes,
