Another great benefit from doing it that way is strain relief on the wires inside. They'll last a ton longer without the gravity pull directly on the connector.

This is basically how I do it too. I've got two cables, a regular straight-end cable, which I use from my pedals to my amp, and an angled-and-straight-end cable from the guitar to the pedals (The angled end is the end plugged into the guitar, while the straight end is the one plugged into the pedal). I then, before plugging the cable into the guitar, make sure it is stuck firmly in place.

Works for me just fine, although the cable tends to try getting in the way of the tone-buttons (good thing I rarely touch those anyway).
