True, but don't forget the overflight fees:

Fees in U.S.-Controlled Airspace:

The FAA charges overflight fees to operators of aircraft that fly in U.S.-controlled airspace, but neither take off nor land in the United States.

Is this the fun police?

No service, no fee. If he opened a flight plan, that's all that's required.

Of course, that doesn't work in TFR's because gliders are specifically excluded - WTF?

By the way, if you ever file a flight plan for a glider, type is GLID/
