I think BQ has shown some (British?) bikes with mid-fork fender stays. I do like the look of Pudge's example.
My V-O fender clips never clipped very tightly, and I've definitely knocked them out with sticks. I just bought new stays, though, expressly to have a tighter fender mount. Now I'm imagining filing a divot into a stay and using some sort of spring-loaded ball bearing to hold the stay in place... like a ratchet handle. Like a 5 ounce metal quick release... never mind.
