For this kind of application, where the center of mass is displaced relative to the bars, you could indeed use any amount of grip.

Mounting the headlight in that area puts the lamp in peril, making it likely to get broken in a fall or when the bike is parked by a rack and gets knocked by other bikes. Typical fork mounts are further feeble. I am aware of one good mount only, Zinkens Dynashoe - benefits of the design should be apparent in the photo:
Alas, with the demise of bottle dynamos, that mount, which accommodates also a dynamo, is not produced anymore.
