Fascinating design I haven't tried, I have made inductor based designs but a pure capacitor design combined with a high speed mos might make for a fun micro psu design.

These types of switching circuits are very common inside ASIC where the high speed isn’t an issue, you don’t need to move all that much charge, and one can’t easily (if at all) support inductors.
