I have never seen this before. I have no idea what it's for.
Any idea?

I think you can pull on it to lower the shower holder. E.g. if you have kids and someone before them put the holder too high for them to reach, they can pull on this thing instead.

That's exactly what it it!

I pulled on it harder and the shower head holder came down with it - although I had to fight the brake quite hard.

Quite a clever thing.

Thanks!
