Chris, just in case you don't see the long ramble I posted on the Make Your Own Rack thread, I had a thought for ways to attach bags.
The usual system is a couple of bits of Velcro-covered webbing thrown over the seat, my thought is to have a webbing harness, looped over and under the seat which stays on the bike. This would have a one half of side-release buckles (like rucksacks and climbing and parachute harnesses) attached. Then you simply unpick the Velcro from the existing bag straps, put the other half of the buckle on this, clip the two together and adjust for the right hang. Should be very easy to make up using stuff you can get in a camping shop or online and hopefully means the bags go on the same way every time even when you've tired, worn out or rushing to get going. Oh and if you put alternating parts of the buckles on each side, you could then clip the two bags together to carry them (does that made any sense?)
