I still don't trust it. I've got a set of those strap quick release thingummies on both my lens and camera, so swapping the strap back and forth isn't particularly onerous.
I usually carry mine over the shoulder like a bazooka, using the tripod foot as a handle. This has the side effect of making me highly prominent and also signals to any other nearby gawpers who are desperately pinching at the screens on their iPhones as if that's going to help them any that I am a Very Serious Photographer, and they aren't.
