Re: [sv-bc] rules for interface module port used in nested instantation as port for another module

Thank you, thank you.  I think three might be an understatement.

Interfaces and, particularly, modports have the potential to
raise dramatically the abstraction level at which some kinds
of design can be described, but their combination of LRM muddle
and insufficient expressiveness has led to them being widely
ignored and/or misunderstood.  Their weaknesses frustrate
and irritate me more than any other thing in SV.  But the
(probably quite proper) recent emphasis on improving the
language for advanced verification has led to interfaces
getting little mindshare.

Let's fix that in the next PAR.  Please.  It would be nice
to see some movement on it before the end of my career...
