I have heard of people putting glue or pounding aluminum foil into the
bolt to deter thieves.  Of course you hae to dig it out of your stem for
an adjustment, which if a thief has a bit of time will certainly figure
out.  For seats, I saw an internal cable that hooks to the seat post
rail and to one of the waterbottle bolts on the inside of the frame. 
totally internal and cool...maybe you can adapt something like that with
your stem.
