I am not trying to defend the TSA, mind you, but it has long been their practice to alter/add additional security without announcing/publicizing it. This can be bothersome, true, but one doesn't want bad guys to be too sure what will be expected of them as they try to pass through Security. As the OP notes, you can still get through Security without having a second ID, you'll simply come under additional scrutiny. Again, let me reiterate, I am not advocating such measures nor suggesting they are effective; I'm merely pointing out that they are nothing new.
The TSA ARE the bad guys for harassing the traveling public. No one should ever have to show even 1 ID, let alone another.
OP: File a complaint at 1-866-289-9673. Also write your elected representatives. If the MCO FSD mandated this, then he/she is a real scumbag who should be caned and terminated.

No one should ever have to answer questions to travel without additional harassment. The TSA employee who attempts to force people to answer questions in such a manner can go to hell.
I have a "static answer" for such "random interviews" too.
