Believe me, I've thought about redneck-engineering something myself. I may get there; I'm just checking for more clever, more attractive, turnkey solutions.
I'm certainly not the only HA user who's approached this! I do seem to be the only one without a 3D printer, tho.
This is not redneck engineering, it's how evening is attached to walls in the US as far as I can see. An ugly hole in drywall, and cover the rough edges with trim. I'm not sure what else you are looking for.
Something outside the wall could use minimal wood working and nails or command strips.
