I've wanted to move the upper strap to the heel area for a long time but have just never got around to it.

As to the other peg, my Washburn came with a removable peg on the bottom that was supposed to 'button' onto a strap. Trouble was the buttonholes on ths straps kept wearing out, leading to 'catches' just a little too often.

What I did was get a new strap and bought an eyebolt at the hardware store that was a good bit smaller than the hole that had held the peg. The eyebolt is 2" or 2 1/2" long -- goes in all the way without having to thread it, and when it's on an angle (which is almost all the time I'm playing or have it "on") the threads do sort of 'bite' inside the guitar preventing any slippage. The leather of the strap cushions the guitar bottom against the "eye" part of the eyebolt, and a flat washer to the outside keeps the strap from even being able to work its way off.

To unhook I simply take the strap off my shoulders by going over the head, reach down and pull the eyebolt out. It is about as quick as that and stable as I can imagine anything being The only part requiring any caution is that when I put it in the case I fold the strap so the eyebolt winds up with the tuning pegs.
