I am sure the answer is 100% no, but why would it be? What is wrong with wearing a cap in a funeal for example? Its your head afterall! :)

It is my head, but it is their place. If I don't like the rules I can leave. And if a fancy restaurant has a dress code, suit, tie, dress shoes and no hat, I can dress appropriately, or I can choose not to come. But if a restaurant does not have a rule, it's nobody's else business to care. I could be wearing shorts and sandals and tshirt for all anybody care.
I guess it comes down to the owner/ proprietor of the place what rules they want to set.
In most Asian countries, or households, you take off your shoes/ sandals before you enter the house, as not to dirty the house. This rule is very simple and makes sense. And it's surprising that so many people in the west that do not respect this.
I had my carpet soiled several times due to delivery people not taking off their shoes when the apartment manager opened the door for delivery or repair man. This is a sign of total disrespect.
