I added something like this.

I believe that many users will actually want to use the through-holes
directly.  The IDC connector is most useful if you want to connect
OGD1 to some other device (like another OGD1) via a ribbon cable.

(I'm not sure if all pins are connected, but those that are not
signals will be power and ground, usually more ground than power.)
