The ride is typically smooth enough in following seas that I don't need to bother with tabs and if it's bad enough for bow steer to be an issue, I'm usually going slow enough to surf. Also, my hull has laminar flow disruptors that seem to do a great job of preventing bow steer. They make a really cool noise when they are working too... You can see them in this picture of a boat that's like mine:
