So it should be legal, but they should be treated as the impolite people they are.
I agree with you on that, its indeed the same when westerners visit muslim countries, take Egypt for example (popular tourist destination) some westerners dress modestly, others go around in next to nothing, its down to inderviduals respect (or there lack of) for that particular culture.
In stricter muslim counties you might get in trouble for being inappropriatly dressed in some areas.
Now one way to look as France's ban is titt for tatt, but the other way to look at it, is that they are effectivly aspiring to adopt the very standards they reject.

A few years ago here in the UK a teenager was sent home from school for wearing a crusifix pendant (in case it might offend non christians.)
In this case over liberalsim just comes back around to fascism. Its like watching a snake eat its own tail.

Its all just so unbelivably petty and stupid. Some people just need to mind their own damn business and get on with their lives.
