Wouldn't be the biggest surprise in the world if the a cheap switch box
just commoned all the 5V pins together (since it can act as either a 2>1
or 1>2 device, it'll be dumb).

But a source HDMI device is expected to protect itself from an
unexpected 5V arriving into its output, so no harm "should" occur.
