In Australia at least they do identify you at the smart gates for immigration. The customs officer doesn't look at visas or other immigration details.

Nope. I left last week and will return on Monday and - just like entering the UK - can confirm that, while there are Customs staff hanging about to make sure nothing goes wrong, they are not individually monitoring each entry/exit.

I find it bloody marvellous. I was on the Heathrow Express literally 20 minutes after getting off the plane from Melbourne. That's how it should be.

Sorry, I meant "the smart gates are used as the only identification method". Poor wording.
