I have several micro USB cables that are asymmetrical - the cable is shifted to the side, like http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Micro-Travel-Charger-M540/dp/B...

These are trivial to plug in purely by feel in the dark.

And as a bonus, they charge many of my devices! I "die a little inside" every time I have to use a special cable for an iDevice (or a Samsung tablet!)

Interesting that you consider it an advantage to have a connection sturdy enough to pick up the device by the cable. You probably don't care much for magsafe adapters...
