Is there any problem with taking off the plug, and fitting the lamp
onto a lighting curcuit? I can't see one with a normal lamp, but
possibly with a mains powered halogen desk light for example?


Well, you'd need to use an FCU so that the connecting cable to the lamp
(flex?) was still correctly protected. For convenience, make that feed a
5A round pin socket so that you can more easily and safely maintain the
lamp.
