With the reduced frontal area

With the reduced frontal area and being a tandem,i think big disc brakes would be a must to avoid rims overheating on downhills (albeit at the price of increased fork strength required and weight of the said reinforcement.

they all look fun!

Triangulation of the moving

Triangulation of the moving bottom bracket front end (especially if with a Silvio or vendetta boom above the headset) would give the fork much more rigidity than a conventional fork, which should be good for a tandem.

Isolation of the reaction forces between each mbb drive train and the respective end of the frame will also mean reduced requirement for lateral stiffness of the frame.

If i wasn't backlogged on "official" domestic projects I'd be keen to have a crack at it!
