Don't forget to put an outlet under the eaves or on the backside of
a framed "chimney", so the roofers have a convenient place to plug in.
Did you ever notice that you can get nice recessed "wall hydrants" for
water faucets outdoors, but nobody makes them for air?

Because air doesn't freeze, break pipes, and otherwise cause a huge
mess?

Making the roofer's job easy isn't my intent and I certainly don't
want to climb up on the roof to install/service an air connection
that I'll never use. OTOH, we're thinking about building a house.
If we end up going that way, I was considering an air connection
inside every closet (hidden, but accessible). Running the lines in
open walls is easy enough.

Or a flush plate-mountable air QD fitting that would look good
inside a house? I'm just going to put the air-line drop in the
front closet, and paint the pipe when I'm done.

I don't think they have to look all that good of you just tuck them
in closets alongside the door opening. No one will see them there so
they don't even need to be painted. I have one in an outside closet
(outside the front door, where the entrance panel is), just because
it was a convenient place to run a line from the basement to the
garage.
I have a QC below the brickwork above a basement window, 100' of hose
will reach anywhere on the property/house.

You have a small lot. ;-) Dragging 100' of hose around is a PITA
though. I never used more than 40' to side my garage and the
compressor is in the basement.
