Mark,
I know some of you frown on the use of handbook commentary,
I don't think people frown on it, it's just that by its own admission, it doesn't hold any weight as far as being code.
Dlhoule, after I was asked to meet an inspector one time for this, in the future I would simply run a three wire to a receptacle in close proximity or directly below the switch and split this receptacle. I would then leave the conductors to the light capped off and tagged in the switch box, install a blank cover over the "future" fixture rough in and be in total compliance with the NEC.
A red tag after this would be an abuse of power by an inspector simply not liking the installation wouldn't it?
Roger
