AFAIK, you shouldn't use the lighting circuit at all, as even if you don't,
a future person could attach something of high load and cause a fire.

But any load higher than 5 or 6 amps would trip/blow the lighting circuit's MCB or
fuse, so I can't see how it would be dangerous ? That's not to say it's
reg-compliant ! The only safety issue (ignoring the regs etc) would be the
possible lack of RCD protection.

Assuming someone has not uprated the fuse/mcb !!!
