A how with a reservoir (which you can fill up with glyphosate solution)
which is connected to the working surface by capillary tubes?
I suspect that getting the delivery rate correct (and efficient) is
non-trivial, and that there's likely to be a problem with the delivery
tubes getting clogged at the outlet end.
We don't have the hoe bit but we do have a long plastic tube which can be
filled with weed killer. A piece of rope or somesuch goes across the bottom
of the head of the tube, absorbs the weed killer and allows it to be
selectively dabbed onto plants very safely.
