I agree with the fears of putting too much strain on the sockets. I get away from this problem by using the cheaper and just as flexible solution of using a Y-cord. I make mine myself. Just get your longest patch cord and cut it in half. Connect the cut ends to one male plug and there you have it. If you want to stack more than two connections, make a y-cord with one male connected to a long male and a shorter female. They can be chained in many ways and can extend the length of the cables too. The angle and strain of the connection to the panel is still only one plug.
