We used the large milk bags you're describing in the cafeteria of the 
student residence. You couldn't really spill those because the spout was 
sealed until after you'd installed the bag in the machine; then you cut 
off the tip of the spout and the handle regulated things from there on.

Of course, you *could* just lift the handle without a glass beneath the 
spout and then you'd get a spill.

As for milk bags at home, they only have a capacity of one litre (very 
close to a quart) so you won't spill all that much even if you spill a 
whole bag worth.
