I rarely unhook the carabiner and I've never had a problem with them, although it's a hassle when using a tripod as I have to remove the strap.
Not sure if you use a quick release plate/clamp system? If not, consider the Arca Swiss type – it's as close to 'universal' as you'll find, most the better quality heads use it. I have plates on camera (a convertible L-bracket, actually) and on all lens collars, and a small clamp (Kirk 1") attached to the BR lug. Very secure, and makes it really easy to switch the strap attachment from camera to lens or remove it for tripod/monopod mounting.
