I don't know how common this is, but I've heard the opposite sentiment. It caused a lot of restaurants to stop being careful to ensure there was no cross contamination because most people asking for gluten free foods didn't actually have an issue with eating it.

Yeah I’ve heard that a fair bit too - thankfully I’m a high-tolerance Coeliac meaning my body can handle very small amounts of cross contamination but for those whose bodies can’t process a single iota of gluten this has become a significant issue for them. I find that when I order gluten free a lot of servers will ask me “is that for preference or are you Coeliac” and that gives me confidence that when I tell them I’m Coeliac they’ll take extra precautions.
