Ed's idea sounds great but may not work in practice. The exposed copper on the edge of
the slot tends to pick up plating which results in shorts between the holes that have
been routed through. We route through the holes after plating and remove the burrs by
hand with a scalpel. The price of the board goes up accordingly.
