The problem is that it doesn't know that * is a matrix multiplication until compile-time. In any case, I don't think there's a huge amount to be gained from special syntax here. Unlike broadcast operations, matrix multiplications cannot in general be fused with other operations. So you might as well do A_mul_B!.
