I hadn't considered creating a hole to allow cables to sneak out of a 
baggie.

I wonder if a traditional non-sealing / fold up sandwich baggie that 
folds over itself might work as well without the need to make any holes.

I used off brand zip-lock bags for cables during my last move.  It made 
the boxes of cables a LOT less messy.  I could grab a baggie and pull it 
out without worrying about things getting tangled.  It worked fairly 
well.  The only thing keeping it from working great is the need to 
acquire and dispose of the baggies.
