Nope, this kind of nonsense happens only for US and UK bound flights.

I flew to ZRH from FRA and had no such issues. Also, if one flies UA after connecting from LH, one has to get harassed again making the transition from Terminal B to Terminal C. There is no such harassment in the opposite direction.
