I have done that, too, and it works fine as long as your horse is quiet.  I 
have always been cautious about having anything attached to the saddle while 
unsaddling for fear the horse might jump and there would be the girth 
attached to the breastplate.  No trouble with a quiet horse, but accidents 
can always happen and I'm "pathologically cautious."  To cover both bases, I 
have been known to unsnap all attachments of the breastplate from the saddle 
and then immediately upon unbuckling the girth, retrieve the girth loop and 
snap it back on the breastplate.
