Another similar (ISA ET4000 on Zorro II) card is the  Domino.

Well there was the Omnibus, a special (passive) bridgeboard

@Lex

Yeah,sure,but that didn't use the ISA-slots allready present in the A2/3/4000
(like the Omnibus), but has the card (topside-down) mounted onto the Zorro-card.

In theory one could analyze the Omnibus,and use it for more than 1 card.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else
