This works really well on Cat's Paw. I learned about it on this list a year or so ago and I implemented it last winter. Someone said the idea originated with the lady who has published extensively about marine toilets (name eludes me) - Danny - you talked to her by telephone a few months ago - right?
Flushing the bowl with fresh water at the end of the day has made a big difference in smell. It also has made winterizing the toilet and holding tank easier - just fill the basin with antifreeze and pump it into the toilet and then into the previously emptied holding tank. I would not have gone so far as "sweet" though!
