Why?
You could have 4 supply lines,
+15V, +5V, +3.3V and -15V and two grounds, one analogue, one digital.
As long some basic precautions are taken there is no need to limit a system
by saying it can only have one PSU.

This is the big problem and a scary one..

The Nord G2 is the closest I've seen, where you can 'expand' it by buying
more rack modules.
But it still doesn't have that 'knobby' interface that people love about big
modular systems.
