Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Go to the locations menu, and go Add>Find.

Type in "London, Ontario" (example)

You're taken to the entry for London in the UK.

It should be able to parse full locations like that so I don't have to manually select NorthAm>Canada>Ontario>London. (This applies for other cities as well)
