Recently they have been advertizing on TV about a suction grip grab bar that
would work perfectly here. Should work fine for occasional balance or

Uh, no. You don't trust suction cups for human safety applications. They
always let go at some point. Like when person in tub has one wet foot on
shower floor, other wet foot in space trying to find bathroom floor. No
grab handle is better than a handle you can't trust.
