Yes! A brief Google search led me to several research papers on the enzyme, all clearly stating it's pro-inflammatory. They're not even hiding it. One of the first interactions mentioned was related to Celiac disease.
There's an old saying -- "Let the buyer beware." Checking labels is something everyone should do with all products, not just meat or even food in general. For this specific situation you just need to know your meat cuts and then these products stick out like a flashing neon sign.
As another Aussie this is happening in at least one of our supermarkets, you can see it in some of woollies roasts, they are off cuts glued together and string tied into a roast. I always untie my roasts to check and because I prefer to cook them untied.

Transglutaminase is in meat and seafood, but it is also used in bakery products, dairy products, coatings used on fruits and vegetables to extend their shelf life, and processed legumes.
