I agree. I'm using foo.bar._, that's the same used by Scala.
Sounds good. Arbitrary + precedent > arbitrary.

Let's be accurate here:
Meaningful >>> Arbitrary + precedent > arbitrary.
If I want to truly import an _entire_ package than both:
import package.all;
import package.*;
make sense/ meaningful.
If I want to have a special file that includes specific public
imports for the package's public API than it should be called
appropriately. e.g:
import package.api;
I've seen such usage of an "api" package in Google's Android
platform for instance.
