I agree 100% that the elevator can generate an upward force and pushing the
stick forward in a tricycle plane to put weight on the nose is NOT a good
idea in general. I would think it would be very easy to over do it.

The bigger problem in wheelbarrowing is the too-fast touchdown.
The wing, if you remember your groundschooling, generates more lift at
a lower angle of attack at a higher airspeed, and a fast landing is at
a flatter attitude. Since the nosewheel usually keeps the airplane
slightly nose-high on the ground compared to flight attitude, the
nosewheel will land first, and without the control the mains offer, the
airplane becomes a really nasty taildragger. Forcing the elevator down
only make it worse, and having flaps deployed lowers the nose even
further for a given airspeed. Years ago one of our students ran a 150
off the runway into the snow and overturned it, just because he
wouldn't slow the airplane to the proper approach speed and get in on
the right glidepath. Trying to fix a bad approach by diving at the
runway and then forcing the airplane on long before it should land is a
sure way to get hurt and bust your airplane, sooner or later.
This thread was about crosswind landings. The biggest and most
common mistake I see there is the belief that the flight is over after
the wheels are on the ground. He will neutralize the controls,
including the ailerons, and in the rollout the wind could pick up the
upwind wing and flip the airplane over. More and more aileron should be
applied after touchdown until it's all used up, and then held there
until the rollout is complete. Even in taxing in a stronger wind the
controls should be used to prevent upset.
