the king of sweden,
<<Never had a loose front wheel on my swift and its the oldest swift around sounds like you left the skewer loose to me :D.>>
like i said it only moved a little and was doing heavy braking on tarmac (lots of grip) to get heat into new disc pads. Been fine ever since offroad etc – though I make sure the qr is real tight
but the point is that *IF* the skewer was a little loose or came undone – braking would pull the wheel out of the forks – it would not with front facing dropouts – not an ideal design.
as a note just from a mechanics point of view rear facing dropout on a fork with disc caliper in the usual position is not ideal as when the braking as the wheel is trying to pivot around the braking point and if you take a radius the hub is wanting to come out of the rear facing dropout. of course rear facing dropouts are fine if you are using caliper, canti of v-brake as the point of rotation is different.
– but anyhow Sam had redesigned the fork to have a different dropout (plus some extra tyre clearance I understand – so all good)
you could of course do what cotic did and swap the position of the caliper
