I've used Java since 1.0 days which is a depressing long time ago. In
that time, I've used and seen used * an awful lot. Of course, it's bad
(when 1.2 came out, we all had to fix our code because of the
java.awt/java.util List nameclash), but the alternative was a total pain
in the ass.

I stopped doing this around 2004, when Emacs started resolving the
imports for me. Currently, maintaining Java imports in Clojure feels
like it did with Java before 2004.
