Back flat basket recommendations?

The other half is commuting between work and class now and carrying a heavy backpack with laptop, books, etc. etc. Right now we have a rear rack, but it won't hold the bag. A decent sized front wire basket would be the right shape and size, but the bicycle has a suspension fork. We don't want anything removable; we don't want the parts removed by someone else and carrying a whole basket around all day is very inconvenient. Most rear baskets I see are twin, with two too-small deep baskets; what we need is shallow and broad with a decent load. Oh, and there's not a lot of distance between the rear axle and the back of the seat to play with and we've had issues with carriers before having to be moved away from the seatpost in order to not get pushed off during riding.
Any suggestions?
