Hi Cecil
If I have understood well your question, I think that the "Resonant Feed dipole" (ARRL Handbook. 1996, page 20-17) is so much similar to the clasical sleeve antenna. See in http://www.io.com/~n5fc/rfd.htm a description. Decoupling with his approach (choke) to the transmission line is poor due high end Z. I have modified it replacing coaxial choke transforming it in a coil (less turns) made with the same coaxial but parallel tuned with a condenser making these turns resonate (both terminals of condenser are connected on the braid). It is a good kite antennna (I am flying today with a Rokaku kite), and a good solution for a good "windows in" dipole, without any tunner neither earth connection...
