I think that would work... if it didn't cause the module to "walk" away from
its neighboring modules. Currently, there is no mechanical connection between
the GBCms, so excessive vibration may result in misalignment over time. Also, it
takes a motor - most of the "unsticking" systems I've seen are like Dave's, in
that they use one motor for two functions, a lift as well as a "jam busting"
mechanism.

And, perhaps the motor mount. Didn't you guys actually start shaking apart
your own mechanisms with some of these? I want my GBCm's to run for hours
continuously (well, I can dream...).
