I have no problem with anyone wearing the kilt for whatever reason, so long as they respect my reason for wearing it as well; namely to honour my Scottish heritage.

ESPECIALLY by someone who is not Scottish in nationality and/or heritage? Here I have a different take---I'd be far more forgiving of, say, a Nigerian (or Samoan, or Kazakh, or Russian) who was wearing one of "my" tartans "improperly" (or without sanction) than a Scot who was!

With that minor quibble, I whole-heartedly agree with Todd's concluding paragraph.
