You would solve the problem of the wiring harness, but you would create other issues in packaging a latch on the body side. Both locations are possible, Corvette decklid latch is on the body as an example. There are multiple solutions, including running the harness outside of the trunk in the gutter area.

This is the best overall solution, that satisfies the many requirements involved, wiring harness just being one of them.
