Default Lighting wiring in FAQ - power to switches

Methinks there are 2 ways of wiring lights-
1) power to the light fittings, and a wire to the switch with blue masked with brown
2) power to the switches, then wires to the light fittings.

I'm doing way 2 as I have lots of switches going to individual light fittings,
and i think its simpler and clearer,
easier to debug,
and blues are always neutrals.

But I cant find anything about this in the DIY Wiki
