"Regimental officer's" kilt pin?
I've seen these advertised in a number of different places (including X Marks sponsor, ScotWeb):

They've intrgued me because of their elegant simplicity -- I prefer them to the "blanket pin" look -- but have never seen a picture of anything like it being worn as part of an officer's dress uniform, per the billing.
Anyone have an idea of which regiment(s) might wear/have worn such a kilt pin? Anyone have any pics?
Would it be gauche for someone without a military background to wear one? (My gut feeling is that it should be okay, as there is no identifiable insignia or the like, and -- at least here in the US -- one isn't obviously "playing soldier" by wearing it.)
On a practical level, would the chain be asking for trouble, or do you think it would be no worse than any other kilt pin?
