Could the board have 5V pin? #76

Apologies, but not one for Stackoverflow.

USB-C provides 5V, and many developer boards may use 3.3v or 1.8v or other, but they provide 5V for driving other kit. Could future board versions please have 5V output pin, possibly with separate gnd pin nearby? given analog/pwm pins would more gnd pins also be a good thing?

I'm using VSYS as the 5V pin, and it's working well. I'm supplying a vibration motor, and an SD reader all at the same time, while the Edge TPU is also operating.
