Yes, I must think more about this. Perhaps the recessed LED method with parallel plates would produce a light field which was bright in the centre then bright again at the edges where the reflections from the parallel plates kicked in, but somewhat lacking in between? If this were so, it should be possible to overcome this by bending the plates (as they approach the LED) into a parabolic curve. No lossy ground glass needed then...
