Flight security is indeed a joke. There was a possible attempt to take down a plane using some sort of liquid explosive, so now most liquids are banned (well, in Europe, dunno about America) - that is a purely reactive ban to one out of a thousand possible threats, simply because that threat has already been tried. Silly. You don't increase security by reacting to a previous threat; you increase security by working to analyze possible future threats and working on neutralising them.
Preventing passenger access to the cockpit was about the only sensible move I can think of in terms of the "new security".
