Are you talking about the dual row .1 inch headers sometimes seen on
Motherboards for connecting USB? I don't see why that would be better
over having a real USB connector on the board. Those headers are NOT
proper impedance, just cheap, putting a real connector on the board is
much better from a signal integrity standpoint and takes up less room on
the board. 

For an IR receiver if you want an internal one just use one of the
internal USB connectors. That's one of the things that will be talked
about during the beta period, is a builtin front panel receiver
something we have to have.
