couldn't pacman distribute mirror lists?

couldn't pacman distribute mirror lists during updating?

- first step: fetch new mirror list.
- second step: update now.

Furthermore, if pacman.conf could include an option the way like:

REGION=EUROPE

pacman could prefer to adress mirrors in europe.

Just an idea.
