You can get thin plastic finger protector plates designed to go behind

The idea of even more plastic isn't really doing it for me.
I suppose I might be able to chop up some spare back boxes to make some
sort of extension to extend the box to the face of the plasterboard
thereby enabling a better chance of successful filling...

You can get a very thin plastic frame that would typically be used to
gain a few mm of depth when (say) fitting a dimmer switch where an
ordinary switch was.
When I fitted one for my daughter last year I was surprised how
unnoticeable it was especially as the switch faceplate was metallic
