I've thought about doing this several times...but I'm reluctant. Oil goes rancid...and I keep imagining the sticky oil residue staining mess left ringing the bowl.... nothing a little soapy water wouldn't take care of I suppose, but still...not something I want to deal with when getting rady to take her out on the road.
Instead, I've been in the habit of pouring a shot of the blue tank chemical into the bowl with a few inches of water in it...basically making a higher viscosity blue bowl fill with pleasant aroma
Honestly I've never really verified if it slows the evaporation or not, but it seems like it might.... Once in a while if it's in storage an extra long time I'll add a bit more water to it, but it's not often...
