If we use a multi-mastered protocol and a lamp switch can talk directly to
the lamp, there needs to be a way to tell the switch/lamp that they are
related. Since any one switch may need to be any address (per it's users
wishes), there needs to be a method of loading at least a few basic
parameters into the module. Perhaps (space permitting) a 3 conductor mini
stereo jack would suffice to input data directly (as if it were coming from
the power-line or other medium).

Just an idea....

Comments welcome.
