How do you get the chain on a QR fixed wheel properly tight?

Hi,

I've run fixed gear bikes with both QR and track nuts without any problems. My only trouble is that I find it much easier to get the chain correctly tensioned with the nuts, as you can walk them back.
Am I missing something or is it much to harder to get as much tension with the QR as you do with the track nuts?

Please don't just slate QR for fixed wheels and suggest just using bolt-on. I'm genuinely interested in any neat solutions any one has for tensioning a QR fixed chain.

Thanks a lot

George
