Valid. I will try designing a more modular system.
Any pictures of nice custom solutions are welcome...

I can find them later, but those system can be achieved with OTP rack, e.g. Velo Orange Rando and Tubus Tara.

Sorry to butt in, not the best photo but this is what I've got
Custom porteur rack attaches on the inside of the fork blades, Tubus Tara on the outside.

The main disadvantage I have with a big front rack is that it stiffen the front end significantly, not massively so but can felt a little more vibration on your hands (experience with Surly Nice Rack).
Having a porteur rack mounted halfway the fork legs prevent it from stiffen it up too much, ditto to the low rider.
