A few headlight mounting thoughts and considerations..
-a light on the handlebars can easily be adjusted while riding which is 
something I do occasionally when there are speed and terrain changes,
-or dimmed or shielded by hand if someone is coming the other way on a bike 
trail (a factor with the new high power lights),
-and there is less water spray and road grime from the front wheel with a 
higher mounting.

Hmmm - I've found that I want the light as far out in front of me as possible, 
as I can get some nasty  glare when I stand and pedal unless the light is 
well-shielded from above.  I also seem to recall reading that low mounts are 
better as it shows road relief closer in than a high-mounted light.   YMMV...

My disinterest in threadless stems is on record in this forum.

However, every now and then, even this committed threaded stemaphile
has to admit there are some neat threadless gadgets out there.

And here is one neat gadget:

If you are going to be putting your luggage behind the seat, why not
mount the light high and in the center?
