It is true that you will have this odor problem with disposables as well,
but only if you use baby wipes.  My wife and I have found that a small 
(< 20) supply of washcloths work quite well when we need to do some serious
wiping of a dirty bottom.  Only extremely loose movements need more than a
single washcloth.  We found the baby wipes to be less than optimal when we
tried them.
