uneven weight distribution = over steer or understeer...
in this case you will experience oversteer and your car will look ghay.
Muscle cars did it cuz they always have oversteer being RRD and they were more concerned about going in a straight line instead of handeling.

besides the wierd handling (even dangerous!) there is no other reason... I mean there will be no immediate consequences. in the long term, the higher weight on the front end will cause odd tire wear, and shortened life of front end components.

My springs are 2.25F / 2.0R and I don't have any noticeable over/understeer. The fronts will usually settle lower than the rears anyways...from the weight of the motor.
PS. Don't think I've ever heard of some JUST lowering the front. Don't you buy springs in sets of 4 anyways
