Another nice box Frank.
A trick I have used to disguise RS mitres is to insert a contrasting corner. I will try to explain.
I made a jig that will hold the project at 45o to my table saw. Drop the blade so it scores the corner about 4 -5mm deep then insert a piece of contrasting timber in the groove.

I will try and find a picture of what I mean as I can hardly understand what i just wrote ;)

I understand exactly what you do.  I used to have a jig like that to make corner joint splines but it was left behind, with many other items and jigs I had, when I moved to Florida some 8 years ago.  Never thought I was going to need any of them again.  Just might have to make your version for small boxes like I make now.  Thanks
