Yeah, something to move the load transfer point closer to the center of the load would help in that, but then you limit your ability run hub area or low rider racks (depending on the configuration of said racks). Nitto's big front rack, Surly's front, or the pricier Pass&Stow rack all fit the bill and can handle larger loads than the rando-style racks. Even moving the struts that are on the furthest edge to the center of the rack could help in increasing the operating capacity (see Nitto R-14)
Front loading is nice, but I am still in the boat of putting heavier loads on the rear rack where it has less of an affect on handling and a lower consequence of failure.
