As far as security goes, a problem with "airlocks" is similar to a problem with attached garages: It's easier to get into them than directly into the house, and once you are in them, they can provide cover for a more concerted effort to get into the house. An Amazon-Key-like system may mitigate the risk, of course, assuming that the users of the app are properly vetted and that attackers are deterred by cameras.
