They have these at IAH as well, but I'm not sure if they are in the business of denying anyone not in the right group. I saw UA using them for GIG and GRU flights at the same time (opposite sides of the hallway) and thought it was very cool, but I only saw 1 giant line that would then split through the 5 gates, it didn't seem very well organized, I did however see 1 person get a big red X and have to get manually checked, not sure if that was passport or something up with the BP but I don't think he was just out of his group.
