There's a completely flush wall mounting variant which is designed
to mate with a plug built into the back of a wall light, which also
supports the light. I thought that was a smart idea, but I've never
seen any wall lights with the plug built in. I looked at modifying
a sconce uplight I was planning on using to work this way, but the
rear didn't have enough space.

It is a pity.

Consider how many people buy lights, then meet The Loop In Ceiling
Rose. Klik would eliminate problems, it might even make Ikea light
fittings usable... ok, perhaps not.

I think Klik could get a "above 2m shuttered outlet is not a necessity
for 6A fittings with RCD protection", just needs a Stakeholder White
Paper.

The loop in ceiling rose is just a pain. When I wired my house, I wired
everything to junction boxes, with just a single drop of twin and earth to
each ceiling rose - so much easier when I've wanted to change to different
light fittings which don't require a traditional rose.
