XML "Jelly Jar" Light Fixture

Description
My first attempt at a "jelly jar" light fixture with a protective cage. This is as compact as I can make it at the moment. I am still messing around trying to make it a hair more compact for more practical use. If you can find a way to bury its bulk in a ceiling, wall, floor, column, beam etc, it may lend a little more detail to your build. Still functions as a normal light. Build off of the center of the stack to get an anchor block for merging. Currently painted in "schnellbootewitte" light gray. Same deal with merging, you can change the colors by using the middle block where its anchored to do a full color change.

Thanks for checking it out. Leave any suggestions or more compact designs in the comments. I believe this is a light style that should be in the game as a base block, but since it isn't, I'm making do.

@T-Tan, if you have a solution to the overall length issue here, by all means post it!

The light and the beacon locator pieces are a 1x2 "hitbox". The locator has to be stretched quite a bit to allow the light fixture to be placed within. The more you stretch the locator out to increase the size of the cage, the longer the other side gets. I played around with the sizes and this is about as compact as I can make it and keep one inside of the other.

@T-Tan, it doesn't work that way with the two stretched bodies of the blocks. Its either slightly too long or entirely too short

maybe making the light a bit smaller as its bulging out of its cage

There is a small disjointed light effect. A small pinpoint of colored light sits just past the end of the "cage". Just a result of the stretched lamp.
