One of the latest open source 3D printer controllers the EINSY RAMBo

was designed with a header that lets you attach a RPI zero directly to 
the back of it for running Octopi [Image]

I though this was a very nice idea.

It has other very nice feature also such as Trinamic 2130 stepper drivers.
Lots more details [advert for Prusa mk3, only printer using this board 
so far] https://www.prusaprinters.org/original-prusa-i3-mk3-bloody-smart/
