Yup, the idea is that you can get to the front of the line at any time during boarding.

This actually makes it identical to NW's boarding program, which was modeled on CO's but uses red mats. Let's just hope DL's implementation is more like CO's than NW's--the NW board is full of complaints about GAs that don't know how it's supposed to work.
