I don't understand. If anything, the new MagSafe design creates a lever when you pull the cable and snaps the charger out much more easily.

Oh, do you mean you pull the cable in parallel with the body, rather than outwards?

I find that with the new 90 degree connector it is much more likely to be yanked in parallel to the machine. The metal mount is much more durable but I've had my laptop nearly pulled out of my hands a few times by someone tripping/yanking on the cord and pulling the machine straight back.
