This confuses me a little.  My 1991 Volkswagen Vanagon GL Campmobile has a storage cabinet behind the "closet," in front of the hatch door.  Are you talking about the tiny space behind that cabinet?  I could not fit much there.  There is just barely enough space for the curtain.  Are some other models different?

BTW, since putting on new hatch struts, I've had no need for a hatch prop.
