I have plenty of respect for the mains. If someone skipped over my posts and read everyone elses, you'd think I was about to plug in a power cord with bare wires stuck to my tongue.
Recap:
1) All hazardous voltages are ENCLOSED.
2) Nobody can touch said circuitry.
3) I will not submerge circuitry while bathing.
4) Everything will be fused.
5) All circuitry is enclosed.
6) See #2.
The only POSSIBLE way for someone to get hurt would be for it to be taken apart while it's powered on AND someone touched something they should not have. An isolation transformer would limit the current through said unlucky person, but considering 100ma(?) can kill a person, and this circuit will use about 60ma to create 6w out (probably more due to low power factor), the circuit would be deadly even with it.
