i had items stolen from my bag when flying between Bali and Jakarta, no idea which side it happened though.
As i travel using a backpack its not so easy to secure so i now always ensure that i have it wrapped in film at the airport. I know its only cling flim / stretch wrap, but it does seem to do the trick.
Unless it is totally removed it would be easy to see that it had been tampered with - which would probably be a worry for bagagge handlers.
