Never encountered that because I prefer sharp unadecorated intersections among walls and ceilings. Walls and ceilings are, of course, painted the purest white - high gloss white for kitchen and bath, semi-gloss for living areas (I don't do mat nothin', it dirties quickly and doesn't wash well).
I may compromise a little next time I do the bedroom since I've been told women are more comfortable with tints.
I sympathize completely with the Art Nouveau architect who was invited by a wealthy family to "modernize" their Victorian digs. He took a quick look around, then told them, "Strip everything out. Paint the walls and ceilings white, then call me and we'll talk".
