Carnation,
What you described in the OP isn't really surprising to me, but I haven't noticed it yet myself. We do say that the only regalia items allowed at graduation are given out by the school at honors night or through pre-approved clubs, like a medal for Beta, etc.
I'm not sure what gets enforced however because once the graduating class is a certain size, it gets kind of unmanageable. We have a hard enough time with the clearly stated aspects of dress code for the graduates like guys wearing white shirts rather than pink or whatever. While I personally wouldn't care if they had on different colored shirts, they've (and their homeroom teachers) been thoroughly briefed on what's required in advance and I've witnessed a couple administrative showdowns with kids who just expected that the rules didn't apply to them.
I think we'd go to no regalia and just notations in the program before we went to more graduation night policing of what the kids are wearing.
Drolefille, it's a pleasure to see you posting frequently again.
