Spare without bracket?

Spare without bracket?
I haven't gotten around to installing the bracket for my spare tire (tire and kit bought 3rd party). With my recent addition of the trunk organizer the spare simply sits level in the bed of the trunk. I'm now considering just leaving it that way, but adding a retaining belt to hold it in place. Trunk access is much more limited with the tire bracket mounted but normal access with the tire on the bed. Of course on the bed it does take up some space but soft items have fit on/around it fine. Just curious if others have left it similarly and what retention you might have used.
