As I understand it, Location is City. Two ways to make it more useful
- A "pseudoe field" of "all location" which returns values for all 3 location fields.
- A filter so that the UI could include three entries and if Country is filled in have only Regions within that Country and the same with Cities in a Region.
Also we be good to add aliases so that 2 and 3 letter abbreviations work. e.g. US, USA, ME, MA...

I realize that there are separate API's for locality, region and country, but a general "location" would be incredibly valuable for us (which includes continents, and generally prioritizes/sorts by continent, then country, then region, then locality).
