The only down side to that is the fact that the rain-barrel could be spotted.

yeah make sure you paint it greens browns and greys but still it is easy to spot a straight edge in the bush

that shouldnt matter either, the water could be fairly yuck and would still be good for the plants

It shouldn't be groce imo and if you cover it with a tarp, you can keep it for a year no problem.
But the stealth thing isn't good. Carfeul when taking it out there. I'd go at night once I know the path well.
Also try making a gutter with a tarp or other to fill it up quickly and then cover it up.
I just use water crystals and/or find a nearby water source (a few miles).
