One potential solution would be to standardize the driver and lighter assemblies and allow them to be independently replaced. You could even then have lamps with a single large driver which connects to many small lighter assemblies without duplicated effort. Of course, that standardiZation process could take a very long time and have a wide variety of form factors, output levels, etc... which is sort of where we are anyway with light fixtures and bulbs today!
