problems with speakers aligned with a huge baffle (wall)

Are there sonic problems associated with in-wall speakers and how the sound reflects off the wall aligned with the front baffle? You wouldn't need a BSC circuit in your crossover

What about building a sealed speaker box and putting it into the wall? Any difference compared to mounting it on a stand 18" in front of the wall?

I ask because my bonus room has roughly 6 feet of attic space behind the walls. I may flush mount speakers and subwoofer(s) in the future if the sound will not suffer from doing so.

I realize ported speakers in a flush mounted configuration could only work if they were front ported.
