Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Won't help. The RD will still be attached to the bike by the Chainstay/RD loop.

However depending on the type of chainstay fitting, the OP might be able to Dremel a slot so the cable can be slipped out sideways once it's slackened. Then the RD and the cable can be packed in a small sack and tied to the frame someplace.

If the OP can't slot the chainstay fitting, or doesn't want to, he might find a clamp-on chainstay stop, and slot that.
