I will try to order one from all of these sources and report back, but 
have not yet done so:

http://shengyihtech.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008800656103/pdtl/USB-connector/1000823957/5-pin-Mini-USB-Connector.htm
http://www.assmannusa.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_35&products_id=6673

If someone can create a wiki page for this I'll update as I find more 
info and verify that for instance the 5 pins really do go all the way 
through.
