Originally * was designed to NOT get components, later the WG decided
that it was to get components except for VAGENDA and VCALSORE.
Then there was no way to get the properties only for a VAGENDA
and VCALSTORE, so we added '*.*'

We had 1 or 2  interim meeting and phone calls (remember the ones
that you organized?) that kept (among other things) evolving the query 
syntax.
Then there were several edits over time.

We need a way to get top level properties and not contained components.
And we need to way to get everything. '*' vs '*.*' just strings as far
as I am concerned.
