The difference between the G prefix and CE is that not all CE prefixes are
Chile.  CE9 for example is Antartica.  G0 - 9 are all England.  Adding an
alias map of CE to CE would of course allow inputting only CE and have the
results for Chile displayed.  Or alternatively, one could enter CE1, CE2,
etc...  either way...
