This is waaaaaaaaaay different that "saving" chairs prior to the event so you can leave and go shopping or to dinner.
You are putting a lot of responsibility on others around you to be available to pass on that information. What if THEY need to leave to go home before you return? It's not their responsibility to hold your chairs until you return. That happened to us once. The people didn't have seat savers and they asked us to save their seats while they got drinks. Well....they were gone for over 1/2 hr. and we had to leave. So I have no idea what happened after we left.
