add country names for coins in a swap

When listing coins in a proposed swap, Numista shows the country flag but not the country name. I, and I imagine most people, can't identify many country flags, so it would be very helpful to list the country name either in addition or instead of the flag.
When hovering over the flag you get the name of the country in case you don't recognise the flag. Just the flag gives a very clean layout, so please no extra text.
Just call me Bram

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!

​How you can do that on mobiles?
Lets adopt the KISS philosophy, "Keep It Simple Sucker"
I missed this feature long time ago. No, sometimes flags are not convenient at all: when there are many coins from various countries, hovering over them is very time-consuming. Identifying flags is much slower than reading words. I can't imagine how people do swaps with, say, 30 or more coins?
For those who like clean layout, a button to hide country names would be convenient... But maybe that would require too much work from the site creator.
