Are you talking about the same thing they are talking about in this article?

If and when it gets offered on new bikes at my price point and will do what I need, then I'd have no issue with it. I'd have no issue with a purely IGH hub if it had the price, weight, gearing range and other things I currently expect from the derailleur system on my bike today.

It's not a new concept. DIY'ers have done this long ago. Sheldon Brown wrote an article about a bike he built with a IGH hub and derailleur system quite a long time ago.

It might be where bike technology needs to go for a while to deal with 1x limitations.
