same here - the straight stabilises the bias, so it doesn't stretsh in wear  
/ hanging.
 
do it all the time in linen, and not had a problem.  any puckering I  sort 
out by fiddling with the machine tension.

I've always been taught  to sew straight to bias.  I've never had a side 
"baggy"....I would  definitely NOT hang the bias ones!
