RJ-45s are not made for repeated use. After a couple of hundred or so
inserts they become loose or even fall apart.
The paneljacks is also not cheap.

And a more personal note is that I prefer soft patchcables. Cat-5 ethernet
cables  - which is what you normally get today - probably would be very
rigid not to say stiff. They would not remain in that right part of your
19" rack, they would sprawl in all directions.
