Enhancement Request

Description

Need support filtering and customized sorting countries in Marko component

Context

• For special site, we only support user select special countries, so we need it support filtering.

• For some site, we support lost of country. To improve the user experience, we need to put the most commonly used countries first, and the rest at the back in alphabetical order. So we need customized sorting.

UX question:

For option 2, where all countries are shown but some are pushed to the top of the list, would it be preferable to list those important countries twice (once at the top, and once in alphabetical order)? I expect that some users may start scrolling immediately because they expect alphabetical order and miss their country at the top (I have done this before).

[weibichen]

Yes, good suggestion.
I check "Edit Address" feature in www.ebay.com, it did list those important countries twice (once at the top, and once in alphabetical order).

Thanks for finding that! We should shoot for consistency and show countries twice in that case then.
