Although Peco imply in their literature that "Setrack" does not have to be permanently attached it is, in my opinion, always best to pin it down. The individual pieces are sometimes "bowed" and need to be encouraged to lie flat.
If you want a track system that can be used for temporary layouts I think the stronger "ready ballasted" systems from the likes of Fleischmann and Kato are much better. The Kato Unitrack range was designed with temporary layouts in mind as the Japanese have very little space for permanent layouts and often "play trains" on the floor
