Switzerland seems like a good idea on face value. Vitalik resides there and they have a legal foundation there in control of some resources. Switzerland is a rich Western European country with a strong legal system. Don't compare it with "offshore firms".
What liabilities the Ethereum Foundation have for the DAO is far from clear, but they work close enough with it coordinate the vulnerability and make changes to the underlying software specifically to handle this case.
The creators of DAO does have a legal entity, Slock.it. They are incorporated in Germany. This is not the first cryptocurrency theft in the world.
