Just did this…and as long as there is water above pump. No need to tightly seal.

What I have usually seen is a tee in the drain which leads to the toilet bowl (for example going to between the seat and the bowl. The head is flushed normally most of the time, but when you want it flushed with fresh water, close the sink seacock and fill the sink with fresh water. The gravity would cause the fresh water to run from the sink and drain into the toilet bowl where it is then flushed through. As for teeing the toilet intake into the sink drain, that would work but keep in mind the drain in the sink must be tightly closed, otherwise the toilet intake will draw in air, not seawater. Am I making sense?

It would winterise the head properly.

This makes sense to me, but i think it may depend on the design of the particular head.
