That would indeed be a nice thing. I don't know if it should be like all the Arduino prototype shields…

…or if it should just be something that would plug in to a cartridge port, then convert the pins to header connectors so one could build stuff outside the CoCo.

Initially, I want a way to hook up something like a Teensy 2.0 to the CoCo, or something like what Boisy is building for Arduinos. A "CoCo to Arduino" board would open up some massive options.
