our group puts a caribiner on our jacket and a caribiner on the tether so there is a larger attachment point on our jacket that you can feel better with gloves on.
I'll have to give this a try...I keep my carabiner on my suit and attach the tech loop to the 'biner.... It's less of a tactic and more that my CKX has a D-ring that has some stupid plastic protrusions on the inside that make it a biotch to attach the 'biner. It's not much easier to attach the tether cord to the 'biner blind, with gloves on...but the 'biner to 'biner connection might be way easier.
