Anything to get rid of the Wall Warts, is fine with me..........I've got a drawer full of wall warts that I have no Idea what they went to................I thing they breed during the night................

LOL Never heard them called that. Get rid of all the dang power strips as well.
I label mine with a paint pen to associate it with the device it was initially acquired with.
hmmmm...I see a couple of lumpy warts in there...prolly not green enough...wonder what the bounty is? ;-)
Nice idea to be able to sink and source power and to be able to streamline cabling.
This is actually a good thing. Some computer data centers are already converting to provide DC within the building. I bought a bunch of AC duplex outlets that provide a pair of USB ports, a couple years ago to power my portable devices. The fewer wall warts, the less wasted energy and space. I'm retired now, but years ago I had to spec out power requirements for data cabinets I installed in the data center to house servers. The servers and UPS's had known power draw, but other devices that would get added were problematic. People were adding wall warts to power smaller devices without taking into account the ability of the cabinet to power everything. More than once, circuits were tripped bringing down systems. I won't get into discussing the office politics of engineers, programmers and contractors breaking rules; it happened. Wall warts are disruptive!
Incidentally, it helps to label your wall warts not only with what device they are paired with, but also their power output and polarity. You'll find they can power other devices with similar power requirements. Use paint or permanent marker, as stick-on labels detach over time.
