Re bag-matching in the US.  About 18 months ago I was on a TWA flight to
Paris from JFK.  Pushback was delayed a little over an hour.  They unpacked
the baggage to retrieve two bags that were identified with connecting
passengers who never came aboard.  I don't know how common such checks are
but I know from expereince that they occured at least once!
