Ernest,
I agree it is interesting; my concern is that the wing tanks are separated by wing ribs with only a small flapped opening between each, this would require a lot of joins and odd shaped individual cells.

This could however be used for some behind the spar tanks to increase capacity and endurance, where space was available OR extra capacity in the fuselage etc. Weight and balances concerns aside.
