This is just for a single corner of the world. In my country bitcoin is not yet categorized so it could be a currency, digital goods or computer software. In my opinion the laws around the world should see it through single glass and consider it a single entity so that it will be easier to transact on international through legal point of view.
In an ideal world that would be a good thing, but with countries including corrupt third world countries, and countries such as Russia, that's not possible. There always have to be some countries being different and way more harsh on Bitcoin than others. That being said, I am quite satisfied with how things are right now here in Europe.
