Years ago someone suggested that this could also be done in conjunction with a ventilation system that floods the passenger cabin with some kind of non-lethal gas to incapacitate all passengers in the event there is a problem.

I suggested the same alternative earlier today on another post (pasted below) except for the non-lethal gas option. That sounds like a fantastic idea considering the madness we now have to deal with.

From now on, airline cockpit compartments must be armored, cockpit crews must be armed, the cockpits must locked before take-off and must not be opened under ANY circumstances even if every single passanger is threatened with death. In case of a bomb threat, the pilots must fly to the nearest body of water or unpopulated area and circle since, if you are going to die anyway, it is much nobler to die protecting others on the ground. As the Israelis do, plain-clothed, armed security must be aboard every flight to shoot it out with the bad guys in the passanger compartment.
And, as Politically Incorrect as it is (or was until this morning), there is a value in racial profiling. If you look Middle Eastern, you must expect that special attention will be given to you by security.
