Kind of similar in construction, but I was thinking a bit further back and at a much smaller angle - if you can imagine the "wing" being set at an angle parallel to "the template" (k-form profile).
The Frey and Flugel wings seem to be trying to fill the wake very quickly, directly behind the vehicle, hence the high camber and multi-element design.. I was thinking more of something closer to a kammback style effect, where the wing *shapes* the wake but doesn't try and divert the airflow nearly as much as the Frey and Flugel illustrations...
