Prop with a Pi

Now that the SimpleIDE is on the Raspberry Pi it would really be nice to have a proto board to go with it. I plan to just jumper from the GPIO to a breadboard for now.
What I think would be really great would be a board that passed all the GPIO pins but also had a Quickstart connector on the other side. As the RPi can be powered from the GPIO and the prop can be programed from the GPIO put a big voltage regulator on board and leave off the USB stuff. No need for touch pads or LEDs. Just a prop with memory connectors and breadboard.
This would make a very powerful learning system.
