Bought the Hejnar too but since I usually shoot handheld, i shoot without it now.
I always shoot handheld and always use the foot ... it is longer and a perfect "target rifle" "shotgun stock" hand rest that rests in the palm of my hand perfectly and keeps my hand from accidentally hitting the manual focus ring.
 
Wimberly. It is a little tricky at first to get the pin in place to tighten it, however once in place its solid. The owner has a video on the wimberly web site to see what I'm talking about.
 
There is no doubt that the Hejnar and Wimberley are good solutions, the only kicker being that you need a hex key to remove them. I went with the Kirk option as it addressed the issues with the original foot but was readily removable when required. It also gives me Arca foot option for the 70-200 f2.8 FL.
