Possibility to mutate the countries list

[Paulsky]

Hello,

I would like to mutate the countries list in the Country field. Right now, the countries are hardcoded as options. I understand you use the ISO 3166 list. But this list is not always functional. Example: I need the country to be Bonaire or Saba. But I can only select BQ ('Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba'). So, I would like to remove 'BQ' and add 'BQ-BQ' => 'Bonaire' and 'BQ-SA' => 'Saba'. Please see https://www.iso.org/obp/ui/#iso:code:3166:BQ

I have created a workaround in a Trait, but I'm wondering if there is another way?

public function countryField()
    {
        $options = [
            'AF' => 'Afghanistan',
            'AX' => 'Aland Islands',
            'AL' => 'Albania',
            'DZ' => 'Algeria',
            //.... COPIED OVER ALL $options on line 26 in Laravel\Nova\Fields\Country
        ];
        unset($options['BQ']);
        $options['BQ-BO'] = 'Bonaire';
        $options['BQ-SA'] = 'Saba';


        asort($options);

        return Country::make(__('location.country'), 'country')->options($options);
}

You can create your own custom Country field.
