I my view simplest solution is to define a record type with all signals
to be monitored and add a single port with this record type. This way
one can add later as many signals to monitor as one wants without touching
the wiring in intermediate layers anymore. I have added such MONITOR or
DEBUG ports to many entities, and they are quite useful for testing, in
simulation as well in FPGAs.

I agree, package global signal are a potential solution. This still has two
draw backs:
1. it is intrusive, the DUT must be modified
2. it only works for entities which are instantiated only once
With best regards, Walter
