I have never seen one of these up close, but I assume the socket plate requires a slightly deeper back box to accommodate the transformer. I would say that as long as the OP is confident he can fit one into his existing back box, or is competent to change the back box if necessary, then there is no reason not to go for it.
Sorry I appear to have written it backwards, it was the bit that followed regarding home insurance. I knew changing fixtures affected it but was unaware if changing wall sockets also voided home insurance in lieu of an accident.
