If you're having new wheels built up, you could consider building the rear
around a fixed/free hub, rather than the stock free/free hub. That would let
you use a real fixed gear lockring (it's left hand threaded, so it can't
spin off), yet you can still use a freewheel on either side if you like.

I'll be a Quickbeam owner by the end of the week!
I've managed to score an orange QB frameset and I'm having the folks
at Rivendell build it
Re 1), you can use a BB lockring on it and it works fine (or so I'm told by
Rich at Riv).
