Right now, U.S. addresses appear as:
Address_1
Address_2
City, Zone Zip
Country
When they should be:
Address_1
Address_2
City, Zonecode Zip
Country
This is incorrect and there is no way to (currently) correctly use the Zone Code without displaying either an unappealing dropdown (change the full state names to the abbreviations/zone codes) or change the code to only display zone codes. There should be an option in the code to use '{zonecode}' in the address format. Why only '{zone}'? No idea. I've hacked up my code to support outputting the correct data but the wrong format still occasionally shows up in various (unimportant) places.

Absolutely!
Only the second is correct as far as the US Postal Service is concerned.
By the book there should also be 2 spaces between the 2 letter State code and the Zip Code.
And when asking for the address from customers it should say State. Ideally, there should be a dropdown with the state name spelled out that will insert the 2 digit code where required.
The USPS, and for that matter the couriers prefer the 2 letter code and the Zip.

But what isn't "supporting" it?
Its a visual display. The only case where it would matter would be if you had some sort of label printing API on the backend, and that has access to the "code" version of it anyway. For printing purposes, Showing the full word is certainly acceptable.
Not a bug. Feature request

Besides last I heard the USPS will deliver mail just fine with the state spelled out, they simply prefer the two digit state.
