[Leica] how do you organize the lenses in your camera bag?

Yes, that lens sticking out the back thing is a hassle. One of my 90mm 
lenses is an old Elmar f4 collapsible so it will work on the back-to-back 
piece but does not fully collapse. (Altho it does not fiuly collapse when 
using a thin rear cap cover either!)
