Yes all the "maintenance free" connections were never actually recognised by the BS 7671-2008 it was always the manufacturers that regarded them as maintenance free, and so I think some sparks took it upon themselves to consider these as being non accessible joints but others, like myself never.
I haven't got the BGB with me yet but I believe that Reg 526.3 as been amended to include connections that are now regarded as maintenance free and not needed for inspection and testing, if they are marked "MF" and are to the manufacturers standards.
So I'm assuming that by 01/01/2012 you can consider WAGO connections to be of the inaccessible variety.
