Dave,

It might not be such a great deal for the "flying elite" who are
bypassing security either.  They might well become instant targets
of planted weapons, bombs, or other nastiness placed on their
persons or in their carry-on luggage, specifically perpetrated by
those who want to use that free pass through security and onto
planes for later retrieval or detonation.  Would you want to be that
big bulls-eye?
