I slid the seat post reflector down to the point that I can pull the cable loop down over the reflector to keep the cable from bouncing around or making noise. It's all very secure and tidy. When I stop to lock the bike up at a poll, I just unlock the wordlork, take the loose end and wrap it around the poll I'm securing to and then attach it back to the lock which is still threaded through the seat rails.
