Very cool idea. I have recently been building a USB based device and as part of my bring-up procedure, I first power the board from a current limited power supply to minimize and potential damage from construction faults (shorts, reversed components, etc.). I have been using a salvaged USB connector with some soldered on leads, but I can clearly see that you are onto a much more robust solution. Here is a picture of my poor attempt to do a similar thing:

I think that I might need to build something similar to yours, but adapted a bit to suit my power supply.

Thanks for sharing a great idea!

Thanks Doug!

Like I said before, I was already thinking to make something like this, but I think I’ll just use your design!

iI appreciate the warning about the spring too.
