Why don't they hand the passenger a card that says "Shoes" on it? If they don't have the card, they get the full treatment. Or you can put a little sticker on the boarding pass itself to indicate shoes only (just like with checked baggage). It shouldn't be too hard for passengers to hold on to since at many places they are required to hold on to their boarding passes.
That is what is frustrating. Because it would be slightly more difficult for the TSA at DEN to follow SOP, the passengers have to suffer for it.
