I think I previously abstained from voting on ".*", I'd like to vote "no" for the following
reason:

".*" is essentially an upward connection from the child to the parent module during
instantiation. It is not possible to tell ahead of time which signals in the parent will
be connected to by a child instantiated with ".*", which works against doing modular
compilation - i.e. you can't (optimally) pre-compile code using ".*" on it's boundaries.
