Had thought about sending to the rain barrel for summer but since it's stays pretty full just with the rain, effectively I'd just be dumping the waste anyways.

Related question though, how for can you run the 1/4" OD waste water line without causing back pressure problems to the ro unit?
Back pressure really shouldn't be a problem, as there is a restrictor on the waste line anyways.

If you were concerned about it, then run 3/8 hose vs 1/4.
