May one sleep while wearing a tallit with tzitzit?

Synopsis

The Rema rules that sleeping with a tallit is certainly permitted (a fortiori from bathroom entry). Some authorities record a custom not to sleep in a tallit, while the Arizal (Kabbalistic tradition) mandates sleeping in a tallit kattan. The normative ruling follows leniency.
