My 5 cents too:

It will be nice to have an option to connect photoelectric ("opto") end-stoppers to GT2560.
It will greatly improve Z axis tolerance.

I would suggest moving to better connectors for board and bed.
I do a lot of ABS and have already burned board power connector. Bed connector is showing signs of overheating.

my recommendation would be to move to screw style connector.
I have all so measured bed mosFET reaching 93°C+ when heating bed.
