Well I thought I'd come back with an update, just in case anyone is in a similar situation as me.
We're now in the new house, and I'm still undecided on which solution to go with. I was very close to going with the Comfort system. However, I think I'm going to go for a mixed approach with different components all communicating with each other.
With this approach I'm hoping to get the best from each solution. For lighting control I plan to mix wave (for sensors) and LightWaveRF.
It seems there's still not a solution for heating, hopefully before we get to winter again there will be some better control options.
I'm still looking at controllers, Ive got a few raspberry pis which I current use as HTPCs so may explore options with them. The Vera lite has also caught my eye, has an active developer community and can be extended with an RFXcom USB stick.
