I feel this would probably be an issue when traveling to certain countries that force you to choose male or female when feeling out there entry records. And as you probs know, some countries are extremely closed minded in stuff like this. I wonder if this X would make it harder for some folks when traveling abroad.

Along the same thought, this could cause more problems than it's worth unless this becomes a more universally accepted way to treat the passport going forward. Imagine being held up in customs for 3 hours due to mismatched documents (ID & passport)
