Sinks in front of window - mirror/lighting??

Am re-doing our en-suite bathroom (partly due to flood damage grr) and really want to put the sink in front of the window. However, DH is worried that he won't have enough light to shave by on dark mornings - currently he has a mirror and light above the sink which would not be possible with th sink in front of the window.
so, my question is - does anyone have a sink in front of the window and what lighting/ mirrors do you have?

Our sink is in front of the window and on the tiled window sill which sort of comes around to meet the toilet (sounds nicer than it is, I promise) we have a shaving mirror. DH has never mentioned it being a problem, I think he puts the big light on if its a particularly dark morning.

We also have a shaving mirror. I hate it. DH leaves it swizzled around to the 'enlarge' setting and this makes me look twice as hideous first thing on the morning.

We have a halogen downlighter over the sink. Provides adequate light but I do wish the sink was elsewhere.

How about a shaving mirror with its own light?
