Some shield for mains(AC) appliance needed.

I think that vocore need some other "shield" than DOCK for IOT usage.
Fan,heater and other home devices need:
2-3 AC drive capable output channel (for motor ecc ecc)
1-2 AC optocoupled input channel
3-4 leds (or spi/i2c lcd)
3-4 buttons
i2c bus for sensors.
rs232 (only pin header for debug)
optionally:
relay driver (transitor+diode)
an ethernet (but i think is it too space consuming)
and usb (only pin 2.54mm header).
