Ron, To define location as you do presupposes that genealogy is totally based in USA. I don't believe that many people in the UK (or other countries) would wish to insert that extra comma between town/city and county. It looks meaningless on any report produced. OK that is how the Geo database holds it, but that doesn't make it correct, just reinforces that the database is US centric.
Maybe I am breaking hallowed rules, but for UK locations I use village, town, county, country or town, county, country. Of course that means I can't easily find all locations in villages around a larger town and would welcome suggestions for improving the ability to search - but I hate adding meaningless commas!
