My snappy set arrived yesterday so I did a couple quick vids of them for a test.
I ended up getting the 4 Piece Cabinet Makers Set from Woodcraft.
A little redundant after the link, but here's what you get (sans CXS!). Overall, I'd say that they seat into the centrotec chuck a little easier than the Festool bits.

And I did find room for them in the Centrotec Installers Kit. I may modify some kaizen foam to hold them more secure:
[attachthumb=#]
The countersink seems to work fine, and I also tried the self centering with a hinge and it worked great. There is a bit of runout. I have to say I don't think it's the bits, and I don't see the Centrotec runout argument being satisfied here. If you watch the vid, you see the centrotec chuck is wobbling too.
First a countersink demo into QS white oak:
