For those that are interested, I have written a free plug-in for Address Book that provides better multi-country support:
  • country names: you no longer have many variations for country names (so: all "United States", instead of many variations like "USA", "US", "United States of America");

  • country address formats: it tells Address Book to use the formatting that belongs to that country (e.g. my default format is for the Netherlands, which means for US addresses that normally the state is missing and zip and city are switched).

You can specify in the script what countries to check and what your preferred country names are. Missing/unknown countries are added as a group in Address Book. It has Growl support for the summary.



Enjoy!
