Me too Leftiant. Infact, I just finished rigging each of my rods with albright tied leaders. I got distracted yesterday and only got round to experimenting with the Uni knot, but stuck to my usual main to leader connection with a swivel for todays trip. Big mistake. Ironically, the flaw in doing it that way really showed up today in a couple of ways. One being that swivels mean a shorter leader, and that isn't just clumsy at times, but probably puts off fish as well. 
 
I won't be using swivels of any kind for lure fishing any more. I lost confidence in snap swivels today as well. They're useless to me now. I wonder how much I can get for them on ebay :-) 
 
I'll hold onto standard swivels for running sinker rigs, but the more I fish, the less I'm using bait. In fact, I've only used bait once in the last 20 or so trips (for Blackfish).
