What about the IAOC writing to the IETF list and/or recent attendees when
they are considering going to a new country, asking if anyone has any

Not just new countries. One of the nominees for President of the United

from entering the USA. It would seem prudent to avoid committing to US
conference locations for 2017 and beyond until that issue is resolved.
