OK !

I don't know what worth to be included.

LED and switch aren't connected to the breadboard (actually shield &
breadboard are sold separately), it's up to user to decide to connect
LED/switch to breadboard.

Indeed, being able to connect a LED and/or a switch may be handy.

OK

OK again ;)

I'll start with something, we'll see where we'll go. Iterative process.

Will you (and other of course) review it ?

Just attach files to your mail. Or maybe you're using Web interface from
google group ?
