New description:

 I have been running the Tor Browser Bundles that use 0.2.2.x tor branch. 
 It seems more and more frequently, 2 of 3 nodes in a circuit are in the
 same country.  My tor prefers Germany and the USA for nodes.  I frequently
 find circuits which start and end in the USA, or start and end in
 Germany.  I would like an option to avoid national surveillance by any one
 country.  I am willing to sacrifice performance for anonymity.

 You have the option called !EnforceDistinctSubnets that is set to 1 by
 default. Perhaps !EnforceDistinctCountries could be an option.
