Couple of things:

 1. The .<name> syntax isn't really "implicit" as it's just shorthand for .<name>(<name>) where
    the name is the same, which is (IMO) explicit. Can we drop "implicit"?

 2. I'm not that keen on .* without module/interface prototyping and a mechanism for blocking
    inappropriate connection (e.g. 'local' preceding non-exportable signal delarations). So I'm
    probably voting "no" until that happens.
