> you cannot beat a lift-system like the one in the Ergotron

I think if you really want something fast you need a sitting desk AND a standing desk with mirrored monitors and each desk with its own keyboard and mouse.

How is the lowering action? Does it go down smoothly? I have to admit this looks pretty promising, I might have to see if I can find one.

It's smooth. It locks into position at set intervals when you release the lever. Fortunately there is a good range of motion and the intervals are rather small (I'd estimate around 2-3cm each?).
