Based on the images and video I think a rear deck spoiler like the one below would allow for a clear separation of air better than the one proposed which is more inclined for down-force.

Then again, perhaps nothing at all would also work because it appears air flow detachment occurs at the lower 1/3 of the rear window.

Below is an example of air leaving the car rear deck lid (non-Mustang) cleanly.
