No polarity indicated for battery connector on silkscreen #6

A small + indicating battery polarity would be beneficial on the silkscreen. There is room for this on the back either side of the voltage indication "3.7/4.2V". Particularly important with the now large supply of PH2.0 connector batteries used in mini-quads with the opposite polarity coupled with the minimal reverse polarity handling of the board.
