What do you use to interface to the cbus system? Just the PC serial i/f?

Don't suppose anyone makes a back box that could take both J-plate (or
whatever it's called) or UK style boxes? I think there ought to be scope
for at least having a box you could remove/knock out a couple of inserts
from to adapt it for a UK style box should you (or a subsequent owner of
the house) later decide to go back to normal wiring...
