With your change my dbus setter for Country needs to be changed.  It so
happens I had similar changes to Dmitry that I was preparing (my country cmd
displayed the current setting w/ no args).  While you can now use "set
country US" how do you get the current setting?  It looks like "get" isn't
hooked up to a general mechanism like "set" is.
