I don't mean to pack the whole spring cavity... just the hole that goes right through the body. The idea is to provide something to push the tremolo block in the same direction as the string tension. That way, if you remove the strings, your bridge won't flop around. Another block, or wedge, on that side of the tremolo block would be even better than foam. The more solid the bridge mount becomes, the better.
