Even simpler approach to a movable seat - on rails with a latch
(C clamp concept) or holes in the rail and drop a steel bar (weight
training - lots of iron bars and you select the weight by
selecting the number of iron bars and putting a *hefty* latchpin
in the bottom bar).

Watch out for your fingers!

Auugh. I flipped by an infomercial where a guy was "testing" a ladder
by bouncing it on the step side. It's the kind of ladder that has a
beefy hinge at the apex and no crossmember. He was holding it with his
fingers INSIDE the ladder. I'm sure if the hinge had failed I could
include a link to the online video of the guy losing his fingers...
