Just found the picture of the F-one mini harness line.
They had this about 10 years ago...but this way you could attach a loop to every bar.
then a hook would be needed to attach to the depower rope...a 3D printer could be able to do it easily.
Anyone who can/want do all this?

well the loop can't be too hard. A piece of 5mm dyneema with a spliced loop on either side, hitched over the bar. Slip a piece of pu tube over the line to keep the shape, similar to some older chicken loops.
the hook is more tricky. assuming you don't want to mod an existing quick release, you need to place the hook close to the QR, attached to the QR and not to the spreader hook, so that you can still QR if needed.
maybe a stainless steel extension that you can place inline with your centre line / depower line, so the line goes to the hook, and from the hook to the QR. Your 5th line can then still bypass the hook and operate as designed.
I wouldn't 3d print the hook, strenght is an issue.
maybe post a pic of your QR and bar?

I use an old a north bar so I have the loop and hook.
But for future bars and other people's bars...
But I think something like some stoppers are build.
Plastic part, then with a hook, screw it onto the depower rope

I think the cleanest solution will be to pick one standard production QR and chicken loop assembly, and design a specific hook for that. Something that can then bolt on as an accesory.

Sure, it is pretty easy. Someone just has to do it.
