As noted by Nyrath, this anti-dust tech is a godsend for regolith-haters. Not just the Moon, but also Mars' rovers - and, this blog must submit, for Deimos and the asteroids, which have their own dust.
The dust which won't stick to the surfaces will, however, have to go somewhere else; and if they are "rolling off due to gravity", there's a question about whether lower-gravity will prove sufficient. Also: aerosols.
Perhaps coupled with cheap adhesive coatings for habitat floors would work to catch falling dust-particles in airless spaces, like airlocks (obviously), storage, and server-farms.
