Ermm - not in my opinion but YMMV... my comments
Thanks, Decker. Doesn't sound _too_ bad.
FWIW, about your comments about the TSA in that trip report: for quite some time I've used cable ties instead of padlocks. I regularly take satellite equipment as hold baggage, and as you can imagine I'm not over keen on letting this kind of kit going into a black hole for some guy to decide it'd look great on his ebay shop.
I specifically ask that the TSA conduct their inspection with me present. This is often met with a blank response, but when I explain it has so far always been adhered to.
I always make sure that they re-seal the hold baggage with cable ties that I supply - those that the TSA supply (if they bother) are not going to keep anyone out.
Cheers, Howard
