Ah that’s useful. I thought I’d tried using the Sturmey mount with a dt shifter before and there having been a problem I thought it was the angle the shifter sat at or something but might just have been that nubbin getting on the way.

That sounds like it could be the case.
My current setup has the Shimano DT shifters sat on a spacer that came with the Sturmey shifter - which I had to modify - and now the shifter is sits too tight against the spacer/mount making it quite hard to shift the front derailleur.Also I like shiny things and I think these would look nicer than the current 90's shimano shifters.

I have a set - left and right, and I wasn't too impressed with it.
I ended up changing the shift levers to some old shimano down tube shifters instead, as the mounts themselves are great. It is not a perfect setup and I am wondering if I should get a couple of power ratchet shifters to put on them instead.
Rivendell has a little guide for modding the mounts on their page
