mirrorlist as a list might be easiest, I think.
I also think it would be a good idea to add the global list to the

That would ensure that one or two delayed or broken mirrors would not
cause an entire country to be left without updates.
but then what about people who want to stay inside their country
boundaries b/c of cost issues.
no, I'd rather let the user specify if they want extra stuff if they've
already said they want something specifically.
