 EDIT:  space-saving
 

 ###I have noticed that the zipper tends to stick a little. Luckily the fabric is thin enough, it can be pulled out of the snagged zipper with no damage to the fabric.
 EDIT: first phrase not clear, do you mean the zipper teeth stick, or that the fabic is getting stuck in the teeth (or both)?
 Comment:  if the former, you can get zipper lubricant that helps it run smoothly.  I have found that bag zippers are always prone to fabric snagging occasionally, no matter how well designed.
