I can carry anything in my bags and they won't droop. This liner adds minnimal weight. I put it in the bottom of every purse I've made.
I had the same idea, but I have found that the plastic canvas, covered in fabric does the same job for much less weight. I have to figure the weight of things I carry, so less is really more for me. (It even worked in the bottom of the bag shown below, that has an oval bottom.)
