Adding a USB port is quite possible, however, that would require actually havving a USB port to solder on there.
Also, as it is, it can also be mounted to nicely fill the width of the expansion bay, useful if it couldn't have been mounted in the existing mouse port's hole, which isn't possible on earlier A1200s.
and one more point, if I were to buy an Indivision, I still have enough room to mount the DVI port.
I'm not saying your argument is invalid, but, given these points, its probably best to just use the PS/2 USB adaptor that came with my mouse, since the controller is only compatable with PS/2 anyway.
