It seems like an interesting idea, although I wonder how well it will scale. It seems like these sort of batteries would have large surface area and ventilation requirements, which might become a problem in many applications where lithium batteries are currently popular.
It seems a potential problem is that anything that draws air has a tendency to get clogged with dust and crap. You'd also wonder what air pollutants (ozone, nitrous oxides, etc) will do to the battery chemistry over time.
