I agree that a minimum R&D solution is a good idea at least for an interim
product.
The R&D for a whole new brick (or even to improve the number of inputs and
outputs) would be higher than the R&D for what I would like to propose:
Fix the problem with 1.0, whatever it was, that caused the loss of the 9V power
in point, and bring it back. This may be one of the most popular features for
people who build static things of all sorts. DCC for example... it is almost a
must have.
J's suggestions on what parts to put into packs around it make sense to me.
