Its really not that tricky to build something simliar to that if one already has a Rebreather with two tanks on it... Or even better with a overcompensating diluent regulator (ratio regulator?) like on the Siva+ (I belive).
Had a wild idea a few years ago about building such a Rebreather using a Aqualung Legend as dilregulator (slightly overcompensated) simply dropping all the the parts into an FGT.
But then its a rather odd form of Rebreather, maybe it should be done just because it can be done...
why would it flood?? I mean when used in a rebreather
it can only flood if there is an opening from waterside to the internal of the regulater
normally there is no such opening, only the internal side of the breather is in connection with the first stage. the opening is there when you push the manual add valve (gas could go from lung to regulator), and trought the orifice. to prevent gas with moister going backwards trough the orifice, and blocking it, on the rEvo's there is always a one-way valve mounted after the orifice.
we have more than once used our breathers deeper than the IP, (for short time), never a problem
