I can never remember if '*' is the package wildcard or the technology wildcard. In Eagle, and I think earlier versions of Fusion 360, you could see a box with fully expanded device names and the associated attributes. Aside from showing the attributes, it provided a quick way of checking to see if I used the wildcards correctly. It would be nice to see that feature re-appear.
Also, a single '?' (or is that '*') to represent all the technology variants is limiting. It's okay if all the possible variants happen to be next to each other in the part name, but doesn't work when they are scattered in different places. Maybe this already exists and I just missed it, but it would be nice if all attributes could be represented separately in the device name. I'm thinking of things like temperature range, fixed voltage regulator outputs, microcontroller RAM and flash sizes, etc. I'd like to be able to set these up as attributes and then place them in the device name using something like {TEMP}, {VOUT} or {FLASH} (whatever I happened to name the attribute). Then I could make a device named BLAH123{FLASH}XJQ{TEMP}-R and cleanly represent all the variations. As a bonus, if there were default ones for {FOOT} and {TECH}, then I wouldn't have to remember which is '*' and which is '?'.
