I’d be very interested in the outcome of this, the cool white/warm white decision process is difficult for some people (strangely), so would be ideal solution.
 
Yesss sell Luxna lights at the minute that rotate colour if you switch the switch twice in quick succession
Thanks for that, I’ll speak to them.

must admit quite a few people cant make their minds up, too many options nowadays
 
I'd be very interested to hear the outcome of this but more importantly the price. I'll look myself of course but I'm guessing the programmables and dual colour LED's are going to be a bit pricey?

The osram ones in the link above are £7.69 each, so if they do what is required then not too bad. Will speak with the wholesalers in the next few days and try to get a sample.
 
Amitex centurians can do it by remote or light switch - £21.00 each approx
They dim and (K) colour change. 105 mm cutout so quite big but recessed good looking lights.
 
Cef do some also I have used them on a number of jobs they are here:
Starlite S3 - TRI-Colour LED Fire-rated Downlight | Tamlite Lighting United Kingdom - https://www.tamlite.co.uk/product/starlite-s3
One thing I will say about them is they work great on a standard switch and colour can be changed by flicking on and off, but I have had all sorts of issues with them going out of sync with each other and flicker when using dimmers on them! The only ones that tamlite say will work with them is rpp ones and I can say that I have tried zano, mk, aurora and a few others with no luck! Hard lesson learned there! Other than that and the crap wiring plug system on top with no room to make the wires off nicely they arnt a bad fitting and have a good output!
Hope this helps your dilemma

Little update, never got the job in the end ( I was the middle quote, win some lose some )
Yesss supply the downlighters that change through cool/warm/daylight via a remote or by the switch. You buy luxna lights, remote and/or a gateway so they can be controlled via a app too.
Price wise the lights are similar to what most account holders pay with another £100ish for the extra gear.
Fitted alot of luxna all in one units and they seem to be getting better.
Thanks for all your comments.

Yes the neutrals will be connected together in the same terminal and the earth joined in a 2screw earth connector just behind the switch.

It could be a slave switch where you would have a L in and a common wire out to a master switch.
