Seems good, but worthy of more investigation - I haven't been over the
steering column thoroughly yet.

Nope, but I have checked that fuses and clips are clean and in good nick
(kicking will follow, I've no doubt...).

Everything dies, except the lighter socket (I have a phone charger with
an LED permanently plugged in, and that stays on).

Once power returns (after a few secs. - worst case so far has been
around a minute), it'll start fine.
I think it's the 'ignition' switch and/or associated loom. Will start
there and widen the search if I find nothing.
