This is just a guess, but I can imagine
sipa's address index branch might be more suitable for an use case
where information about any address is required - jmcorgan
continued to maintain a usually somewhat up-to-date version:
https://github.com/jmcorgan/bitcoin/tree/addrindex
As for balance queries, that's not possible out of the box and I
have my own branch for this with a few other RPC calls that are
noted in the README:
https://github.com/dexX7/bitcoin/tree/master-addrindex-extended
When using the original, you need to ensure a transaction is part
of the main chain and wasn't orphaned. If you consider using my
branch, please consider it twice and review the changes first.

I made a branch of Bitcoin 0.9.3 plus backports including
watch-only and a huge pile of patches cleaning it up from the
master branch. It seems to work fine although it is not
heavily tested. I suppose if you use ONLY for watch-only it
can't be harmful? Dunno.
