Depending on what your cage frame is made from and how it is assembled, setting the cage directly in the pan might rust or corrode it. You can set the cage up off the bottom of the pan slightly with plastic furniture feet floor protectors so it gets a chance to dry. Also, if you have a solid bottomed cage you can run a thick bead of aquarium silicone or rigid plastic around the edges, tip the cage slightly so water runs to one point, and put a bucket under the low point. A couple of pan ideas not mentioned in that great article are cement mixing trays, mud trays for shoes and boots, and hydroponics flood tables. The tables are great as you can get them fitted with a drain. I don't think I've built a cage yet that fit the typical utility sink or storage box. I like my cages larger whenever possible.
