I think in your previous post you said you already had the nose tilted up a little the next thing I might try putting the seat back a little further, maybe even getting a set-back seat post. Oddly enough this helped me with the same issue, I'm guessing this is because my legs are able to compensate a bit for the tendency to slide off the front of the saddle.

I wouldn't attempt to "texture" a Brooks. You're liable to decrease the useful life of the saddle and likely cause yourself future chafing problems. If you do decide to try this approach I'd leave it as a last resort.
