I've posted this question once several years ago and I don't believe I 
saw an answer so I'll try again :)
Currently we have 228 country flags:
- 135 of them are 21x14
- 38 of them are 21x10
- a lot of others are in other sizes

Also some of the flags are just smaller png (like "yu") and some of them 
have smaller flag padded by gray color in png (like "si").

I know there are some flags that have different aspect than others but I 
still believe some unification is still needed.
We might want to bring most of them to 3x2 aspect (i.e. 21x14) and 
remove gray padding to be consistent.

Currently I have 2 problems with that in kxkb:
1) the flags look different in the list :)
2) the layout label height sometimes does not fit into the flag area 
(currently "yu" with flag will look like "vu"), so to fix that I'd have 
to create Pixmap larger than the flag and bitblt flag there and only 
after than draw the text. But I'd prefer to fix flag sizes rather than 
making workaround.
