The 11-12 reflector housings are big enough to dissipate the small increase in heat, I'm pretty sure. I know my F150 headlights were.
As for projector setups, they have a much better venting system due to the decreased size of the housing, but Xenon bulbs also burn much cooler than halogen bulbs. A 50W Xenon bulbs burns about the same Fahrenheit temps as a 20-30W halogen since you are igniting an inert gas rather than heating a metal element through resistance which creates most of the heat.
