Review the countries that are at the top of the "country" dropdown in the shop

Title:
Review the countries that are at the top of the "country" dropdown in the shop

Area:
Shop

Summary:
When paying by credit card in the DW shop, one specifies one's country in a drop-down. This drop-down is alphabetically sorted except for United States, which appears at the top.

Suggestion is to review which countries appear at the top.

Description:
It is fairly common for such dropdowns to promote a few most-common countries out of their alphabetical order and put them at the top of the list.

The Dreamwidth Shop does this with United States.

My suggestion is to review which countries appear at the top in this way: are there others that hold a sufficiently large proportion of the DW paid userbase to merit this treatment? I suggest that 3-5 of the most common countries should appear here, and that a separator should then be inserted in the list to make it clearer what is going on.
