It would be nice to have small country flags associated with people in the tree and on profile pages, to easily identify their nationality/ies and country/ies of residence. This is not a difficulty of programmation in my humble opinion.

  Define 'nationality'?! Perhaps place of birth, residence or death could be shown as flags as they are on the map in many cases anyway.

  Nationality could be defined for ascendents before, let's say, 1830, as place of birth.

  In most areas: what flag is correct?

  Remember that we are mostly talking about people not living today  with today's borders and flags.

  Even using historical correct flags based on time period would cause problems.
  You would insult people from for example Estonia if you put the USSSR flag on them jsut because they was born in that period.

  We have the same problem with locations.
