Don't understand what you're talking about.
If it's what I'm thinking about, I do it on my bike which has a panniers rack, but the qr thingy, although I doubt its longevity (just bought one) is really cool on my bike with no mudguards/no rack...
Also, there's the problem of bike / saddle to wheel distance, which make the ideal solution different for everybody
I really don't have any trouble with saddlebags secured at the bottom onto a pannier rack. Also means I can use panniers on the bike, just switch bags. Or both. It pulls the bag downwards and away from the legs, works just as well on a saddle with no bag loops. Dunno why you all bother with those bouncy rack things. Mine actually shook itself loose and fell off cos it was 'held' by those crappy grub screws that can't take any torque, and it immediately got run over by a car. The ends of the steel wire don't even have anything flat or indented for the grubs to bite, no wonder it slipped out.
