I'll just add that provision for fore-and-aft adjustment of the wheel is no longer necessary because modern derailleurs have B-tension adjustment screws which accomplish the same thing, hence vertical dropouts. But for a "classic" derailleur like a Campy NR or SR, you need horizontal dropouts to get everything dialed in properly.
