I use the OpTech/USA sling. I had the same concerns as you about attaching to the tripod mount.
There was a discussion here some time ago about this subject and several people contacted Nikon and Canon about it. Neither Nikon or Canon gave a thumbs up OR a thumbs downs on attaching the strap to the tripod mount, though both did state that the tripod mount was only designed for attaching the camera to a tripod.

OP/Tech sells an accessory called "Lens Loop". It is a loop with a special coating that slides over the lens between the back of the tripod mount and the camera, leaving the lens foot tripod mount free. Per their tech support, the coating prevents abrasion of the lens barrel.

Thanks.
Thanks.
Here is the thousand words. One of the two straps on the camera strap lugs.

I'd like to see one on those with a ring in place of the buckle for use with a snap connector.
