These are documents that he personally worked with, rather than a cache of documents acquired for the purpose of copying and releasing them.

Nope, guess again. They're releasing edited versions, not the originals or even direct copies or direct typed copies.

"In accordance with the deposit agreement, the Churchill Archives Centre is opening Mitrokhinâ(TM)s edited Russian-language versions of his original notes.The original manuscript notes and notebooks will remain closed under the terms of the deposit agreement, subject to review."

Also, you have to be a researcher, provide multiple forms of ID, etc.

Oh, and two sections are closed, for undisclosed reasons.

Okay, even though this example is a bit of a stretch, I'll concede that it could happen. I've made several 15+ hr trips overseas, but I've only ever been rescreened once going through London, only to reboard the same plane, and that was back in the 80s. If TSA starts confiscating devices of people in these rare circumstances, I think they'll get lambasted in the media.
