anyone see any reason this wouldn't be suitable as a plug end. no controller being used.

Should work. You can use the test button to turn off the element instead of unplugging. I use the exact same plug with a 110v controller and it works fine.

Is using the test button for that purpose a cause for concern?

It would probably be a lot better to use an in line switch like this one :

Either is fine and works.
