I agree. There needs to be something that shows cardholder intent. The cardholder has to be given a choice of payment currency. MasterCard's rules are even more in the cardholder's favor than Visa's, for instance. All you have to do is say you wanted local currency, and that's enough for a chargeback.
DCC and Marriott continues to be an increasing problem: UK, China, India, and Germany.
