Whether this was initiated by the hosts is in my view not relevant.
The IETF rules state you need to pay the fees and register. If the
host asks that those rules are enforced then so what. A prerequisite
of any meeting is that you comply with the local regulations. If those
regulations are not counter to IETF rules then there should be no
issue. If they were then that's a different matter. Having some
security checks on strangers protects to some extent the petty thefts
of laptops that have become a frequent problem at meetings in large
hotels.
Eliot Lear's question seems pertinent here.
