But we improved even that invention with the DVD - no more rewinding! And then further developed that with streaming - no more running to the store to rent or buy.

Where have I heard this solution before?

That's a terrible comparison. No woman buys a dress off the rack and is happy with it. They almost always need tailoring. Why? Every single one of you is shaped differently and you wear clothes differently. Men are easy to dress - shoulder width, sleeve length, waist and inseam. Done. Women have all those lovely shapes and curves and require clothing to fit those lines precisely, and we men love you all for it.
I wouldn't be upset about "modifying," especially on a backpack. You're not modifying, you're buying what fits and does the job the best. I guarantee you any properly-fitted backpack is going to carry your camera weight better than any camera bag. Buy the insert and carry the gear. Added benefit - it doesn't look like a camera bag and is less likely to get stolen.

If you want a comfortable way to carry stuff on your back, stop looking at photo bags. Go to a backpacking store and get a women's pack, correctly sized, and turn it into your camera bag. Tenba makes the BOYB system with a variety of sizes to fit your camera equipment into. Get a couple of them. Put them in your correctly-fitted and appropriately-sized bag for your needs and you'll be set. Your photo bag will never allow you to carry what you need to hike the trail or camp in the mountains, but a trekking pack can carry whatever you need and do it correctly, keeping you comfortable and injury-free. Camera accessories are ridiculously overpriced for what you get. A $35 BYOB bag and a cheap messenger bag replaces the $150-$250 camera bag that only does camera stuff.

I try to limit myself to a small over the shoulder bag so I don't haul everything I own. The only reason I'm in the market for a way to carry stuff on my bag is the weight that comes with medium format and the distance/terrain to get back to places I want to shoot.
