Folding rear seats

For you guys who fold down the rear seats for increased cargo space, what do you do to keep the stuff from sliding forward and eventually falling on to the floor? Folding down the seat backs doesn't seem to improve the utility at all unless there was some sort of cargo net that could hold everything in place. Is there some sort of Porsche/aftermarket accessory out there?

I use the rear seat belts by buckle them up with rear seats down. They work well most the time.

Sadly, the design of the rear seats has evolved poorly from what they used to be. (They used to have an edge along the top rear of the seats to keep that from happening. They also used to have luggage tie down points in both the rear shelf area and on the wall between the rear seat floor and the fronts of the rear seats. I actually had custom straps to tie down stuff there.)

But that would mean I would have to drive an SUV. Blech! I would just like to have a semi-usable space back there when the trunk is full. It would be nice to put something like a pizza or two back there without worrying about it flying forward.

I think I found a solution to keep stuff in place, Nifty Cargo-Loks:
