If it's any consolation, the Star Alliance tags don't seem to matter much, especially at ORD,LAX. Sometimes I think the employees there treat them worse because of the priority tags.
Outside the US they seem to work well however.

Like I said, international seems to work well, so if LHR is working for you I can mirror that experience. ORD has always been poor for me and LAX is the worst.

This is something I agree with the OP on. From a marketing point of view it at least makes things appear more integrated even if in reality they are not (or if the tags are ignored as generally happens at hubs like LHR).
