White LEDs based on blue + phosphor have an aging problem -
they go green as the phosphor ages. White LED based on RGB are
(by definition) three narrow band illuminants, and probably
also change white point as they age (although this could be
compensated for). Creating a high quality (ie. like sunlight)
illuminant using LED's would seem to be non-trivial.

Well the first experiment with a full spectrum white light, Quantum Dots
covered LED, was almost a DIY job :-) I gave you the link:
http://www.vanderbilt.edu/exploration/stories/quantumdotled.html
The QDs show less energy loss than several fluorescent layers do.
I am more optimistic about full spectrum white LED development, it may
even be an LQD if their approach to feed the Quantum Dots directly with
energy works, bypassing the UV light of the LED.
My question remains though; the best CRI FLs still must have some flaws,
on which patches of the CRI table, R9 as well ?
