I would settle for something like that, but I don't think it would
fare well in the general market.

Indeed, not good for the general market, but wonderful expansion possibilities
for a geek like me.

Which brings up another point: Usually "open" refers to the software and
hardware, but a third component is the mechanical. If the connectors are
commonly available, and if FIC publishes all the important dimensions and
locations, it would be possible for third parties and even capable hobbyists
to build sleds, desk cradles, and other such fixtures.
