Nothing will happen if the switch is off! It disconnects the hot side so what's there to spark? Remember, the switch comes *before the light bulb so anything you do at the location of the bult is safe. Think of the fawcet on your washbasin. If you turn off the valve that's before the fawcet on the intake pipe, than you can remove the fawcet and no water will gush. If there's no valve right there, than you would turn off the valve for the whole mains. Same here, if the only way to turn off these lights is to throw the main switch, than that's what you'd have to do.
