Just had a look at the drawings again...
You've currently drawn the Z-ballscrew with similar end machining to the X and Y screws which will put the screw in tension. On the Z-axis putting the ballscrew in tension is surely such a large force that it will pull the quill to one side. You also can't really combine a quick release with a tensioned screw as it would take too long to setup every time.
