A few years back I mounted a NAPA 85-300A trickle charger on mine for all of your reasons. It cost $35.99 and has performed flawlessly. I mounted it in place of the completely useless (my opinion) engine compartment light. Looked like the perfect place for it since it is about the same size. Very nice to go out after the car has been sitting for a few months, unplug it, and have it start right up. When I know it's going to be parked for an extended period I always treat the gas with StaBil or another product that prevents gas from breaking down.

Does it cause problems if you trickle charge the battery while it's still installed in the car? Same question, quick charge?
