 The new map on Relay Search is great!
 The consensus weight versus bandwidth map has been really helpful for
 analysing bandwidth authority behaviour.
 We now know that the measurements are biased towards the north of the
 northern hemisphere. (We don't know why yet: maybe the Internet is better,
 maybe the relays are all there, or maybe the bandwidth authorities are all
 there.)

 I can look at the bias for the Guard and Exit flags by doing an aggregate
 search, then mapping it.

 But I'd also like to see the bias for each bandwidth authority, using the
 bandwidth figures in their votes.
 Is this possible in Relay Search?

 Having this map on a country level would help us when we start
 experimenting with moving the servers around, or pooling them, or using a
 CDN.
