ballpoint trick

you are referring to the "ballpoint trick" as when someone takes a pen and open the zipper midway through the suitcase, correct?

My question is:

Are luggage with zippers (at least the modern ones like Briggs, Tumi, Hartmann, Victorinox) all susceptible to this trick/abuse? If so, is there even any point of locking the zipper pulls?
