If you leave the F/R operating mechanism in place (and hooked up) couldn't you adjust the friction on it to use as a damper? The springs could do their work and the F/R mechanism would just keep the springs from "snapping" it back to center, which could be equally dangerous (I'm thinking "heavy load", "snap" back to center, momentum, loader bucket hits ground, operator bucked off seat, flies forward just in time for rear wheels to hit ground again, operator smashes face into hood, accidentally stomps on pedal again...) ?

Possibly, but I don't know if that'd be enough. I'm not sure I'm going mess with keeping the F/R lever hooked up more than temporarily. I've been trying to find a suitable hydraulic damper, but they're all very expensive.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
