I would cut the straps first if that didn't work just make a hole so the water would flow threw instead of filling and pulling you down. and it has been proven that waders under water don't fill fast and most people die because they panic and struggle and drown due to being worn out and then can't swim once and if they get out of them. If you notice when in the water your wader will get really tight around you, almost like reverse suction. I really don't think it is a big problem unless you panic and struggle. and if you are in nonmoving water I don't think there would be a problem.
