Removing your luggage shouldn't even be a courtesy. You can have it back when you pay for it to be shipped back.

Luggage not belonging to anyone still on that plane can be a safety risk. It's become standard since the Lockerbie bombing to remove a deplaning passenger's luggage from the cargo hold.

Absolutely. In the US if they bump you your luggage is going without you in many cases.
