I could see where a slightly more robust solution could really work. Lay down a film (thin-ish plastic/spray sealant that would create a semi-sealed pool on the bottom of the pothole), then fill in liquid from a tank, then apply an epoxy on edges and then a kevlar mesh on top. Then you'd have a decent surface. Especially if the liquid was more like a "gel". I'm not an engineer or a scientist--there are likely loads of reasons the above is impractical.

Well, actually filling the pothole is simpler and cheaper. A hot patch costs around 1,900$ and lasts a reasonably long time depending on what caused the problem in the first place it can literary be 10 years before the problem shows up again. http://www.chicagotribune.com/classified/automotive/traffic/ct-met-0326-getting-around-gfx.eps-20120325,0,7076245.graphic http://www.chicagotribune.com/classified/automotive/traffic/...
