Thing is with a quality 'kiddie trailer' they have restraint straps, you don't just plonk the child in and go. Rather like a child seat in a car the restraints are too difficult to open by the child but easy for an adult.
I'd be very concerned about anything that can make sudden unpredictable movements on a bike, a big 'twitch' at the wrong moment could see them both on the ground and as for being in your sons 'eyeline' I'd assume (maybe wrongly) that when in a car the lad is strapped into a 'kiddie seat' whilst your son is driving
Sorry, I didn't mean to sound dismissive of your suggestion/comment and it sounds like we didn't spend enough time checking out the trailer option. Having spent several hours today speaking to bike shops and seat suppliers it is definitely back on my radar
