I don't see anything specifically mentioning the 5 volt output on the Power Distribution board. This is definitely something that should go through the official &A.

Also, does not the +5 volt supply on the breakout or DSC also power the camera?
Powering 5v cameras from the Digital Sidecar should work, and it looks to me like doing it that way would follow the electrical rules.
