Some PMC information:

        http://www.interfacebus.com/Design_Connector_Mezzanine_Buses.html

(Note we don't need to utilize it as PCI, but the connector type is readily
available)

http://www.hypertransport.org/tech/tech_specs_conn.cfm

Hypertransport connector/daughtercard (PDF Document located here).

MiniPCI specification is members only or pay.  I'll have to check if I have
a copy I'm free to relate information from or not.

Obviously the SODIMM and DIMM sockets are always options for a plug in
module board. (suggest angled connectors to allow for longer boards)

Not sure I caught the original intent for this connector.

PMC is an excellent choice for higher speed items, Mini PCI is another
possibility,  Depending on what sort of data rates your talking about we
might even want to consider the Hypertransport type slot/connector.

If the concerns if finding houses to source these for the general public
most of these would not be an issue.  

All of these options support much higher data rates that an IDE header
would.

One could even utilize multiple PMC connectors.

Again I didn't catch the original statement of intent for this however.

LVDS is not at all a bad choice for a high-speed signaling type.  Readily
available on most FPGA and PLDs families, even transceivers are readily
accessible, data rates can be pushed fairly high when needed.
