The return line of the regulator would return to the sump/surge tank, not the main tank so that if there were a short interruption of the facet feed pump hopefully it would recover and continue feeding the surge/sump tank.

If I understand what you said, your sump tank would buy you about 3.2 minutes of flight at cruise FF.   Worth it?  Bottom line is you are limited by the unusable fuel in the Cozy tanks ( in uncoordinated flight). The sump tank won't fix that.
