Correct, I ran a dedicated wire from the light switch to behind the cabinets, you can just see it popping out at the top of my pic. All my wiring terminates in the switch back boxes though, no roses or junction boxes. I don't see a problem taking a power feed from the nearest source (lights or sockets) if you're having the switch in a convienent location. If they were lamps/halogens that kept popping and tripping the ring it would get annoying as would be having to isolate the ring everytime you were planning on tinkering but LeDs last so long these days I think you'll be fine.
I had a look at that type in a shop but didn't think they threw much lumins, I want them to be quite bright because of my old man eyes!

So, have you left wiring from your ceiling exposed so that you can feed them from there?
