Unfamiliar term to me though I recognise the item visually.

Not sure but TfL recently consulted on the design standards for
accessible bus stops. The document will be on the TfL Consultation

Interesting that TfL still don't seem to be interested in Kassel kerbs.

I wonder if there has been either in London, or anywhere else in Europe,
which requires activation of a lamp or any sort of signal beacon to let
a bus or even train know that there are passengers wishing to board at a
particular stop.

Yes, you get that in the Netherlands at bus stops on main roads
sometimes. The Swiss also have a similar system at some railway
request stops, e.g. on the Vevey-Puidoux "Train des Vignes".

The stop named Kopstadkrysset on the Nor-Way Bus Express line 190
(Kristiansand - Oslo) has such an arrangement. Passengers press a
button at the stop and a signal is lit on the main road.
