Yeah, this is pretty neat. If I wanted to spend the $1500 to get it, I could get this added onto my Leaf. But honestly, if I was gonna spend that kind of money on the Leaf then I'd add a charge booster--recharging twice as fast > recharging wirelessly :D

Widespread use of that induction charger system could help alleviate the issue of having a charging station spot blocked by an already charged EV or even a conventional gasoline vehicle (aka "getting ICEd"). There are companies working on semiautonomous mobile charging carts, and adding an induction charging capability would make these even more useful.
