Looks like the simple list version is a winner then.

Through the use of progressive enhancement I have had the idea of
letting JS create a textbox at the top of the page, which you can type
in your country name and it will filter the list of countries shown
and a little icon/href to clear the current filter.

This means if your country is Venezuela you don't have to scroll to
the bottom of the long list, you can just type "V".

If JS is not turned on then you don't see the textbox at all and can
navigate the page as normal.

Feedback please ?

Cheers.
Paul.
