Perhaps come at it in a more general way with an article on 'omniphobic materials' and then include mention of SLIPS as an early example and then going on to describe 'future' developments in the OA timeline, including the ability to turn the effect on an off.
Transapient transfer plane tech can do something like this in a controlled and adjustable fashion, changing the slipperiness of a surface from virtually zero (or even super sticky) to virtually frictionless and hyper slippery in a fraction of a second. But modo tech versions might be able to do similar things on a slower timescale or operate like SLIPS across an even wider array of environments or the like.
Just some thoughts,
