Cupboards have backs and sides and a services void at least a couple
of inches deep behind the back panel. How do you mount/wire a socket
to the, normally poorly supported, hardboard cupboard back?

If you must mount it on the back, then a batten on to the wall wouldn't be
too difficult?

When I get to doing the kitchen here It'll have below worktop
unswitched sockets for appliances fed from a grid switch panel fitted
with 20A DP switches in the room, fuses for each socket also mounted
in the grid, I think not thought to hard about this yet...

Do you at the minute switch off *at the socket* (or unplug) all these
appliances that you're going to provide this grid switch arrangement for?
And have fuses blowing regularly enough to make it worthwhile?

If not, it seems like a lot of effort for something that is unlikely to be
used - or needed.
