This all sounds like a raft of experimental stuff of the 1960s and the
reason why you don't see them now is because it was a bad idea then.

I believe the two main problems were re-radiation and ensuring proper and
predictable water flow.

The bladder concept is what I hope to bypass: that is, instead of having the
fluid pass under (or through, in pipes), the absorbing surface, why
not run it over (or all around) the absorber? The fluid would fill the
narrow space between the non-conductive absorber plate and the glazing.
This would cut out the middle man, so to speak, putting the water in direct
contact with the hottest surface. At low pressure, obviously.
