Well, if people want to be silly (choosing silly Race/flag combos)
should we stop them?  Given that the default (sensible) flag will
be auto-selected.  Someone once suggested they wanted to be
able to have a choice of flags for a single race (eg Union
Jack vs the strictly "English" cross (forget the name) vs
King Arthurs dragon for the English), but you could also
argue that those three cases could also be implemented as 
three separate races...

Yes, that would work.
