Yes, I was thinking about a shelf of some sort that doesn't rest on the bed
also-I like to sleep w/ my head at the back, so lifting up the shelf at nite
would be cool.

I like the term "stealth camping".  How many volks out there do this?  It
sounds like leaving no trace urban camping!  There is probably a whole new
niche for accessories, etc. for this style of camping.  Downtown Manhattan,
The Superbowl, Mardi Gras, etc!
