This is really only an issue with first generation disc brakes that were mounted on the seatstays. The issue didn't occur with rim brakes or current discs mounted on the chainstays.

I do like axle/skewer mounted trailer hitches.

However, I would imagine the rack mounted on the axle would be a hassle if there were better options available.
