Interesting. I am using 3mm spectra which is pretty slippery, but doubt it would be any different with any other rope. Occasionally it gets caught on the mast join but that is a building error to be fixed rather than a friction one.

Proponents of continuous lashing of sail to mast are not too shy to admit in forums that they vaseline up the mast to help with the sliding. Would be a bit of a mess stowing away rope and sail.
Careful selection of rope with polyvinyl coating or other may be critical.
