Also, I'd put a few LEDs on the board and some switches, along with a few slider pots and a few knobs and let those be patched in easily too.

I really like that idea.
What about dongles? $10 or so for a box with 2 switches (auto on/off, robot enable/disable) to plug into the competition port. I bet a lot of teams would buy that, especially rookies (1504 still hasn't gotten around to making ours).
