Also serves as a spacer when I use my airplane travelcase.
I just like having a clean chain - I don't think I'm extending my mileage or anything, and I don't like breaking it apart to clean - chain cleaner hatred must end.
I use a Nashbar chain keeper, which apparently they don't sell the one like mine anymore - it came with a full-width QR skewer with rigid spacers to adjust for various rear dropout spacing. Works great for both maintenance and travel like you said.
