I was going to send this to Carradice Hacks (www.wallbike.com/content/carradicehacks.html ) but haven't got round to it. I don't like conventional racks very much - they spoil the lines of the bike and tend to rattle and come loose unless you've gone and sourced some nylock bolts. With a Carradice saddlebag and an old Karrimor rack, the load is suspended from the saddle and has a bit of bounce to it.
One thing I like about Carradice bags is that they're designed to be deliberately imperfect. By which I mean - they don'thave a regular box shaped profile and aren't really designed to sit vertically. A 45 degree angle actually makes them quite a bit more versatile, as the image shows.
