It does! That's how I often carry my 70-200GMII!
I actually find that it works a lot better than the 100-400GM. I never enjoying having that on my shoulder strap.

Yes the foot is removable, and yes it has the threaded hole for the PD plate attachment. In fact that is the most common way I travel with this lens.
With the 1.4 TC it does everything the 100-400 does under most circumstances. On my A1 with crop mode it is basically a 392mm f/4 lens with superb IQ. This makes it a fantastic long travel lens.
Thanks guys for the quick response
I am considering the 70-200 as a long travel lens, as the wife and I are going to Thailand again this summer for 2 months. I really do not want to lug the 100-400mm along, as I only need 300 to 400mm for a few days while photographing elephants in a Nat'l Park. Whereas with the 70-200, I could it use every day. With my A7RIV the 70-200 becomes a 420mm with 1.4x TC and crop mode, and that is more than enough reach.
