For me, the perfect solution would be to organize the dive sites in a 
hierarchical way. Then you are not limited to a hardcoded 
Country/Location/Site setup. You are free to use any setup you prefer. 
Maybe you like Ocean/Country/Site, Ocean/Site, or whatever.

This worked very well for the prototype application I once started (but 
never finished due to libdivecomputer taking up my time already). I had 
a dialog with a treeview to organize the dive sites:

And the edit dive dialog, contained a combobox with a treeview picker 
too (I don't have a screenshot with the combobox popup menu shown right 
now):

(The same directory has a couple of screenshots with the other tabs as 
well, in case anyone is interested in seeing those too.)
