You're absolutely right!

This is an issue which has come up time and time again.

At IETF Dublin, some attendants did not manage to get an Irish Visa in
time.
At ICANN Cairo, some attendants from some other middle eastern country
got their visa application refused.

Wherever you stage the next IETF meeting, there will be Visa issues
for somebody, such is the international reach of IETF and such is
life.
