How about some kind of infra red beam which you interrupt and it toggles
the light on and off? Many years ago there was a project for something like
this in practical electronics. Bit of an issue in a bathroom though, due to
steam..

Been on my list for a while - a quiet replacement for the noisy bathroom
pull
cord switch. If it came to it I could look into the kinetic/wireless type
switches, although that'd be quite expensive and relatively involved. Or a
PIR. But really a quiet pull cord would do. Any suggestions?
