Ya. I have a couple of BBGs and didn't read the fine print close enough to
see that there is no barrel jack.
So, I have an Andice Labs Power Cape at the ready and/or build my own power
supply as power over USB is obviously such a non-starter for real work.

Sounds like the right thing, but I haven't done that before. I suppose a
hotplug event on boot iff a usb cable is plugged in?

Excellent!
So one has to wonder if it would be wise to eliminate
/etc/network/interfaces (or at least have everthing commented out with
warnings) to help prevent the often occurring confusion when Connman
overrides definitions in /etc/network/interfaces. And, of course,
/etc/network/interfaces is supposed to be "legacy".
When this is sorted, it would be cool to work towards an "on-boarding"
solution (possibly using something like AllJoyn OnBoarding Service) to
provision credentials on boards with on board wifi...sorta like what JasonK
was pining about.
