Glenn, the translation of the main article :

When taking longtime exposures outside but also when one would want to put a small camera in the pocket of a coat it makes sense to make the removal of the shoulder strap as uncomplicated as possible.

The S-shaped carabine hooks from stainless steel are even in their smallest form 14x40mm capable of carrying till 2,3 Kilo of weight.

In this image i show how i exchanged the "key rings" on the original strap of the Leica X1 with these small helpers.

If somebody is interested they are HERE available

= end of translation ==

Also had a look at the follow up postings but nothing is mentioned about that tape visible or the possibility of marring the cover.
Somebody was interested in the dimensions of the material of the clip as this seems to be not round but more square. Dimensions given : thickness 2mm and height 2,5mm. Also an advice is given to have at least 3mm gap between attachment point and camera body.
