HI Henry,
Looks like you were onto something with this blogpost: http://projectsinterestsandetcetera.com ... y-could-be
A company called carbon3d just announced their "revolutionary" 3d printer today. It's basically a SLS/SLA/DLP printer that is orders of magnitudes faster than the rest.

What's the secret? An Oxygen permeable basin floor. They use a sheet of Teflon AF which is being supplied by a constant pressurized air. The patent explains this in detail: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/20140361463.pdf
I'm not sure if this patent will hinder development in this field now. The other drawback is that Teflon AF costs a staggering 1800$/25gr
