I have to admit that I like the head in its upright position, as I'm not a fan of putting weight on the knobs/buttons.
Do not buy the Kemper head bag

Just wondering if the OP is still alive and well after complaining to his wife about a Christmas present she kindly got him being terrible and the Internet showing him that she actually got him something rather excellent?

I was wondering that too, Gary.
Bit of a hit-and-run affair at this point...

The remote fits fine - the bag is also made of really good quality material.
Has the strap breaking problem been resolved ?

Has the strap breaking problem been resolved ?
New bag (I've buy my bag about one year ago) have different fittings, probably to solve breaking problems.
I heard people mentioning this and almost didn't buy the bag because of it. What I have feels safe enough, but I was wondering about the problem people experienced (most just said "it broke").
Did the fittings break, or did the fabric tear?

Thanks. The clasp on the bag I bought is a different style, both from the one that broke and also Andrea L's. Hopefully the latest in a line of improvements from lessons learned.
The other thing I noted from that thread was that he contacted Kemper, who then repaired his unit, replaced his bag and threw in a DI unit in the bargain just to compensate for the hassle.
Wow. Now that's customer service.

Did you boys notice how the actions of a women caused all this commotion?
Papa's Got a Brand New Bag! HUH!

It's good to see that the bag was upgraded, as mine has shredded and dropped with the Kemper twice. One of the handle attachment loops broke on mine (but they are the older green ones different from the picture above). When the strap broke, strangely enough the hook did not break, but the metal loop holding it to the strap.
My bag is several years old and has shredded itself through light to moderate use, and I am extremely disappointed in it, especially for its inflated cost. I'll never buy it again.
I couldn't get the remote in mine with the upright toaster, but am glad I wasn't able to as the bag couldn't handle the weight of just the Kemper.
Someone on the forum recommended this one:

I bought one of these and it's plenty large enough for the Kemper, remote, and lots of cables. However the bag itself weighs 17lbs, and that plus a toaster and a remote makes for a weighty tote. There are a few tool loops inside that will need removal, but not too many. It will also need foam or the aforementioned towels for padding. But it is much cheaper than the Kemper bag, and FAR better built and more rugged.

Not sure if this will be of benefit to anyone....
But for all you DIY'ers like myself, if you have an old suitcase, a few screws, and some 1/2" ply laying around you can customize a carrying case for yourself. Here are a couple pics of mine. Took less than an hour and cost me nothing.
You just need to make sure, that it's properly supported so that nothing delicate can get damaged.
