Is it possible to use abbreviations of countries/states in the CSV file?

Due to the fact that our extension uses the options that are available in the core Magento, it is not allowed to use abbreviations for countries or regions in the CSV files. To import locations correctly, the address should be defined according to the Magento list, thus, full names are required (e.g. United Kingdom instead of UK).
