They'll probably just damage the bag to get the lock off.

Which, to apply this tidbit to our paradigm, would be most all of them... or as chinacat correctly pointed out, not the sharpest knives in the drawer.

But what can you do? I am hoping some better standards will come into place with the change in leadership. Baby steps to 20 January 2009...

I have used the TSA locks on many trips without incident. The only problem that I see with zip ties is how tight you put them on. If you pull the zip tie 'tight', you do not have much of an area to get a cutter into and cut the tie off.
