This may be good for some of us in the short term, but long term we need to make the lines quick for everyone.

Well, it ain't gonna happen. The government now has a airport security screening monopoly, and the last thing they are going to do is be responsive to travellers, who are NOT their customers. This system has zero accountability, so don't expect "service".

The best we can hope for is a two-tier system, with the famous Aunt Bessie waiting the occasional hour, and the serious business traveller and elite flyer moving through with reasonable predictability and reasonable speed.
