I can't find any requirements for wire splices for class 2 needing to be inside a box, but I'm certainly not a NEC specialist. Anyone have any more insight?

Still, I like the idea of having the connector integrated in the fixture top. I may get a bunch of Molex or lustre connectors and design the top part so that the connector can be integrated into the fixture top itself
I did not realize it was low voltage. That may be alright depending your local code. I like your idea about molex plugs. Sounds like a good compromize for safety.
