Now that is a truly interesting idea... How do you keep the thing together?
Solder the cable to the pins and somehow insulate? I don't see how to slid
any heat shrink onto the joint... Perhaps cover in potting compound or
silicon rubber?

What about using ribbon cable with one of those IDC DIP adapters? The type
used for emulation or debugging of an existing DIP chip? The trick there
would be keeping the IDC clamp part of it together after cutting off the
other half.
