I am brainstorming on making one double as a tarp door. I have also thought about adding strapping to the inside so that I could hang my pack under it when on the bear line.
The good thing about those mitten hooks is they can be added as an after-the-fact add-on very easily. just pop a few stitches on the ends of your rolled hem and sew them in like they were meant to be there from the get go.
