Loop in method for Lighting Circuits

Eddie Currents
Anyone still wire loop lives at the pendant/light fitting for new Lighting circuits ? I insist that its not permitted due to past experiences. Always feel the average diyer thinks that turning the light switch off is safe enough to do when replacing a Light fitting which puts them at further risk of shock. Someone said recently that it's still acceptable to wire this way and often the wiring of choice for new Lighting ccts in new build housing ?

    Loop in at switch prevents smoke detectors being wired up to an adjacent pendant.
