Give yourself the small chance to control your climbing situation by being able to access your attatchments when being belayed in a tree... Think about it.
All good points Therrin, and well taken. The harness I pictured above has the two forward D rings that can be coupled together with a 'biner" and used as a forward attachment point.

I also have a climbing saddle that I have been working on adding to my traditional Miller climbing belt (which I prefer) so that I can have a forward attachment point for my climb line, as well as leg straps to distribute my suspended weight.
