I know clipless has made progress...but I guess I'm gonna stick with what works for me. Clips and straps really aren't so bad once you get used to them.
If you like different shoes and clips and straps you could still do clipless and do it without getting out a wrench to switch pedals. MKS makes quick release pedals that come in platform or clipless. You could buy a pair of each and just switch them according to your ride. They also make your bike a little less desrible to thieves as you can take your pedals when you lock up your bike.
