Security and stolen ipod


So I did a red eye back to Europe, only to have my ipod stolen in Frankfurt Airport security.
It all came together from a combination of a redeye with multiple security checks in the arriving airport, a connecting flight and a delayed airplane ... but how come you need to treat airport passengers like cows in long lines, and do multiple strips. Should it not be possible to:

- Only have one security check for the full travel
- Upgrade the security checks so we don't need to strip or unpack
- Avoid having long fingered underpaid security personel
