Nothing cool about it. An invasive and silly process which offers no security benefit, but continues the 'theater' aspect of airport security while, as the last poster mentioned, ensures the ticketed pax was the person flying.
I am fairly confident that such a process, if enabled here, would elicit howls of protest from everyone except the worst brand of 'sheeple'.
