About 6 months ago I saw something similar being sold at Lowes. You buy one panel at a time (I think they were around $800 each), but you can add as many as you want. I thought it was overpriced but the idea is the same as what you mention in this blog, so I'm just wondering whether you knew about that.
Here is a link to a full kit:

Edit: The Lowes product is off-grid, so maybe the Sunfish product is unique in that you can connect it to the power grid (and slow down or reverse your power meter).
