Personally, I like the idea of a mid-entry coach and wish there were more available. Reasons I've heard listed are: everyone doesn't have to tromp through the whole length of the coach if they are, for instance, just coming in to use the head, going to the bedroom - or loading groceries into the galley, etc. Also, the co-pilot seat is right up front with the driver, as opposed to being set back to allow for the door.
All the Newells I've seen have the mid-entry, and interestingly, never a window in the door. Always looks very secure, like an armory! There were also some custom-made Foretravels (Unicoaches) with a mid entry, but they were pretty rare as I understand it. I'm not really sure why all the DPs started going to the front entry; I always thought the mid entry was a good layout, although you do lose some wall space mid-coach, along with less storage as noted above.
