This would need to be integrated with the general registration mechanism

do not think it is a joke....at the Cisco Networkers in Paris, you had to
sign on for all the sessions; your agenda was printend on the back of your
badge.
Staff at the door would only let in the people who could show that they
were listed for that session until right before the session started; only
then could the rest of the folks go in.
VERY Expensive. But it worked.
In the IETF, we have:
- Large floating population
- Session scheduling done AFTER most people have signed up
- Large amount of wandering in and out.
We are not an easy community to plan for.
