That does sound feasible. There are a number of airports (SFO probably being the largest) that have their security screening performed by non-TSA third-party companies, which I suppose is the ultimate political embarrasment lever to pull.

The last time I was there it was still TSA. How is it? Are they more courteous and/or efficient?

SFO hasn't had TSA.

It's been that way since 2005. It's pretty much indistinguishable from TSA other than the badges on the uniforms.
