Ah, both waiting on each other :-/
I was wanting some guidance as to whether anyone cared before
investing time. It sounds like at least Eric is interested in the
possibilities, so v2 is done.

Sorry, what goes into those schematics isn't my domain. They are taken
directly from the master schematics used for manufacture, so what is
present will be correct.
I will ask that future schematics do include the wiring back to the
SoC for all GPIO connections that are exposed to the user via an
external connector. That would clarify things like where SDA0 and SCL0
on the camera and display connectors actually connect back to.
The dt-blob is maintained to be consistent with the hardware,
otherwise the firmware won't work. Any errors that have crept in have
generally been picked up and corrected quickly. (The only one I can
really think of was that the two camera GPIOs got swapped over in the
config).
