Interesting question which I have been thinking on as well. Using a ball you would increase the on axis response but at the ssame time decrease the amount of HF picked up at the back hemisphere of the mic, possibly not changing the power reponse at all.

Another approach would be to simply us EQ to open up the mic's in post.

The low noise of the mic's may let you get away with this. If the end result becomes more or less noisy than by going with a dedicated diffuse filed omni I don't know. The KM183 is a nice alternative.
