That is a good idea for reeds about to be played--back up and so forth.
For me the drying out and warpage comes about when the reeds are in storage
and really dehydrate.

I like the idea of a small water container--but my main concern is the
storage problem--that is when the reeds really loose the moisture and then
when soaked and played do all sorts of nasty and unreliable stuff.
