Are you using a springer type fork? If so, you can counter some flop with rocker modification. Sugar Bear made long springers for years with excellent rideability. Motorcycle post, but plenty of good info:

Cool. This just came up in my shopping app. Check out what the bike is wearing:

Seller calls it a Deflopilator, claims that it holds the basket centered when loading
 
Hmmm. Like using rockers, but no springer. I think putting the axle above/in front of the steering axis, essentially, you've turned them into reverse casters. Gravity causes it to fall straight. Looks cool too!
