IMO, yes, too many people hype the front rack, especially when it swings with the front wheel. One of these steering damper springs should improve your handling a little, but the problem remains, weight in front of the steering axis will want to flop over. I know it's ugly, but for the typical rider with the typical bike, a box on the rear rack is the better option, with the only better solution a good pair of large panniers hanging on the sides of that rear rack.
