Quite - with sufficient tailwind you'd maybe have reverse flow over the rudder - notwithstanding any propwash. In my humble opinion, the chances of that providing sufficient reverse control to effect a groundloop - minimal. I'd be more concerned about the earlier reduction in effectiveness in it's normal operation. Anyway, the toebrakes still work (and in the correct sense..)
