And does nothing to ensure that the dropout faces are parallel. A set of "H" tools (or equivalent from Park, Cyclus, etc.) will let you set the faces so they are parallel. Price may be too much for a one-off job, but your LBS certainly has the tools and can do the work. Or perhaps you have a bike co-op with the tools?
In any case, forged dropouts like that are made from mild steel so they are malleable to allow for this type of adjustment, so the dropout itself ought to be fine. But the chrome plating may crack, which is a cosmetic issue.
