Default Lowering Stall

Just for discussion, what opinions are there for an individual lowering the
stall speed of an existing wing considering constructability and cost?

I remember there was some leading edge profile modification studies done
years ago but can't see that as a practical approach for an individual.

Thinking about how to add sailplane-type upper surface spoilers, WW2
fighters underwing dive brakes, etc.
