I have the Oasis 2 which has the same aluminium frame as the 3 and yeah it's slippery. I've dropped it a few times.
Ended up getting this TPU cover and it's great:

Think it will fit the Oasis 3 as well since the dimensions are very close to the 2.
I've searched extensively as well and could only find three choices, two of which don't match your preferences unfortunately. But I'll still list them since they have the flexible tpu backs instead of a hard plastic shell. Please let me know if you find any others!
You can also consider vinyl skins. Decal Girl and Skinomi offer some, and there's probably a handful of other brands too.
I've been regularly searching for a TPU cover to add a little more grip to the Oasis 2 just like I usually do with my smartphones. There are a few choices for the 2016 Oasis and finally one has popped up on Amazon for the 2017 model: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0791BBNKV/
The cover won't be great if you're looking for protections for a bag , but if you're looking for something easy to slip on and off by your bed for a little more grip than the smooth aluminum back offers, this might be something work looking at. It's easy to slip on and off by the bed and into a more protective case if I'm talking it in my work bag.
At 47 grams, it's about a quarter more weight, but is largely imperceptible. The fit and finish could definitely be more refined, as there are visible seams and a small bump where the case doesn't sit flush against the Oasis. The front face has a sizable lip (~2mm?) that should protect the face of the Oasis if you put it face down on a table.
As for grip, it adds a reasonable amount more grip, but it could offer more. I've had grippier TPU cases for phones. I'd say it it brings the Oasis from a 1/5 to a 3/5. I may experiment with roughening the surface up a little bit, but it's decent enough for now.
This is what I've been using. Gives the Oasis the soft touch feel of most Kindles https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0791BBNKV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
