It occurs to me that we could, perhaps just for testing, use the net
*name* to flag its functionality.  For example:

       netname=D0.bus
       netname=D1.bus
       netname=D2.bus
       . . .

       netname=TP.matchl
       netname=TM.matchl

Etc.  That's something that PCB can read *now* and a plugin DRC could
check for.

I don't think "star" applies to a net, it's what goes *between* nets.
