is the lee holder easier to get in on? i find the cokin fine, but getting it on and off can be a real pain.

Like condyk says, very easy. One spring-loaded brass clip is all you need to touch...no little plastic pins to fuss with, and with the Lee holder the first filter slot is functional. Not so on the Z-Pro without first having to manipulate the three pins (at least that's my experience with the Z-Pro...to others, these issues may not matter at all). Not trying to slam the Cokin, just pointing out some differences...

I use the Cokin P series and I have "no little plastic pins to fuss with" either. There are three very simple grooves that need no touching at all.

TBH, I don't recall any vignetting with my 10-22 when I had it. I know for sure that I don't get any when using the Lee on my 17-40L with the 5D camera. But then again, with the Lee, you have the option to remove a slot if the need arose...can't do that with a holder that has fixed slots.
