Yeah, looks cool. Never tried it. Someone asked how to rig these and I thought, "there's another way?". So I googled and found that. Hope it helps.

I do obsess about sharpening my hooks though. Usually once every 10 minutes.

Other than the wear on the kinked leader, I think there are times when this could be a good thing as the attachment puts the lower portion (underwater) of your leader at an angle. Much like Jonas described doing for indicator nymphing at last years Jam.
OK, so my drawings aren't as neat as Jack's

Jack, any tips on foraging for them?

IMO, the advantages of a 90* angle rig as described above are nullified by the fact that it can’t be adjusted to the proper depth. To fish effectively, most of the time, you need to be very close to the bottom. Especially in the cold water of winter, it is a rare occurrence for a fish to be suspended above the bottom while feeding, or for a fish to move any great distance from it’s holding position to feed, therefore a rig that can be adjusted to ride inches from the bottom of the stream is essential.
