There are a lot of inexpensive 12V lighter-powered LED floodlights and light bars with a magnetic base that you can stick to your rack or roof wherever you need it. I'm thinking of using that solution for camp lights rather than going to the effort and expense of hard-wiring up a bunch of lights I'll rarely use.

Which ones are you looking at? I have not thought about it that way.

I ordered this and love it
4"/100mm LED Flood Light w/ Bracket - by Front Runner
It's Front Runner's 4inch LED flood light. What's great about it is that you install the bracket in the front runner rack channels between the loading slats (what makes up the platform) and when not in use, it can fold back flat between the slats so it's hidden and doesn't make any additional wind noise. This has been an ideal camping light and with a switchpros unit (or there are a couple other options for this), you can use dimming features for even more customization. It has plenty of adjust-ability to aim it for how you want to use it. Just check out the Front Runner website to see the pictures of the multiple ways you can mount it.
The caveat to this is Front Runner wants to charge you $150 (on sale) for the light and the bracket. DDM Tuning sells an almost identical light for $20.

I'm not going to comment on quality differences because I haven't seen the DDM one in person and have no experience with the brand, but I found that after I purchased mine and thought I'd pass along the choice to save a little money to somebody.
With the DDM light, you'd just need a mount for the rack, which Front Runner sells for $40

BAJA S2 Pro in either flood or spot, super tiny yet put out as much light as some 10 inch bars. And no extra costs for brackets, they will bolt right to your frontrunner, prinsu or SSO rack
