There are cases where the larger gate resistor is necessary (although rare). If there is an EMC interference, large gate resistor makes the switching more rounded and no high frequency harmonics are generated.

In general we need fast switching mosfets to make losses as low as possible and the efficiency as high as possible.

So, yes, a low resistor in the order of 10-100 ohms max. is what you need. Or even better no resistor. Mosfets have insulated gate and no current flows through the gate (besides the spike to charge gate capacitance).
