certainly, nor do i want mine jostled about either! i have bags worth several thousand alone, not to mention the additional thousands in devices inside. this is all irrelevant because there is no answer to these issues as we all have our own preferences--and at least we can all agree that no one owns the space above your head, it can be an amusing show when some cow loses it about her bin having been previously seized, and that you should never ever ever place anything above 1D.
