I never worry about a few ounces of water lost while waiting on warm water. I have a 100 gallon fresh water tank, pair of 7.5 gallon tanks that I sometimes fill while out sightseeing.
As for 'conserving water' - what I will do while dry camping (if I really want to stay someplace more than 2 weeks) is scoop up some of the grey water from my tub (while showering) and put that into a 1 gallon jug to use as flush water, or if I am concerned about overfilling my limited 42 gallon grey tank, I can put more water into my 59 gallon black tank.
Many times while camped in the desert, away from other campers, is dig a hole, and let much of my grey water into that hole, so the local plants can get a drink. But never try this in a 'established campground', especially a state or federal campground.
