Actually, now that you force me to pay attention, I was thinking of the #8886
Power Function to 9V cable, which can connect to NXT via the NXT to 9V cable.
But of course, given that stack-up of kludges, there is a wire pair missing, at
least as far as sensors are concerned :(
But since we can get the 8886 cable and the NXT connectors, small amounts of
hackery should be able to lash them up... as you say:

I'm primed. My main barrier to progress is that my Lego co-conspiritor, my 9 YO
daughter, is busy building a #10175, a project which put our robotics and Power
Function experiments on hold for a while. So much Lego, so little time...
