I feel like drop out wheels were a bad idea. For the number of times you actually want to remove your front wheel I'm happy just having to undo a lug nut. Drop out wheels have made it too easy for bike thieves and they just unhook the wheel and run off before anyone notices what they're doing.

A good compromise would be dropout wheels but they need unique key to unlock the wheel.

There are locking axles that replace the quick release axles, to do what you described. A couple companies I've heard of (but haven't tested myself):
