Indeed, and I have reflective tape positioned on my pedals where it will
always be visible from the front. Not that anyone's likely to see the
reflectors past the Lumicycles.

Not much I can do to make pedal reflectors visible from the rear, though.

I've thought in the past that it would be good to have pedals with
really long axles, and that reflectors could be mounted to the axle
extensions. Might encourage wider overtaking, too. On the downside,
they'd be a PITA for filtering.
