This is a flaw and the correct process being invoked by default (as in previous XC5 versions) should be re-applied ASAP please.

As I wrote in another thread, everyone in the UK has own view of the standard list of countries. To help merchants fit buyers requests we replaced the select box with combo box. Yes, it is available to enter any county, however, the system uses Zip code for shipping calculation. Also, we recommend using zip code instead counties for zones.
However, to revert the previous behavior there is a special conf setting in the etc/config.php file. Our team will review the upgrade procedure to understand why the file was not updated during the upgrade.
