I thought about doing that, and decided against it as a minor  
usability issue... people might be wiring up power point-to-point  
straight into the board without the connectors (Serge style) along  
with a bunch of other MOTM-power style boards, in which case (even  
though I have the power connections printed on there), I'd like to  
make sure they all go in the same standard direction to avoid a  
possibility of a power wiring mistake, however slim, in case someone  
gets sloppy reading the +15 V and -15 V and is just going on position.
