I run SKS plastics on my Atlantis. There's a shortcut in my
neighborhood that I frequently take. It's a path that is thickly
"paved" with big woodchips. Like when they cut down a tree, it ends
up on this path. Some of the chunks are pretty....um....chunky.
Anyway, I was cutting across the path, and there was a loud "whack!"
sound and then a rubbing sound. Sure enough it looks like a woodchip
got in my spokes, whacked the SKS stay and the front fender QR'd
itself and the woodchip dislodged. I just popped the fender back in
and straightened the slightly bent stay and moved on.
It's nice that the QR feature works when a mean chunk of wood
diabolically leaps into your spokes.
Yes, I did upgrade the Honjos on another bike with the Portland Design
Works QR kit.

Do you have any photos of the bike with that kit installed? I'm having
trouble imagining how it's to be used.
