A stalled wing can still be moving forward, even as it falls toward Momma Earth. Also, in a spin don't you always have one wing rotaring around a point defined by the lower wingtip? The smoke in the above example acts exactly as I would expect it to. A stalled wing is one in which the airflow has separated from the upper surface of the wing. It may indeed still be moving forward. Blow smoke across a stalled wing and you can clearly see the burble in the airflow over the surface. Smoke generators at the wingtips will not show whether a wing has stalled or not.
