'*' isn't so ambiguous, is it? I agree that this should include v4 and
v6. Perhaps :: or 0.0.0.0 can mean one or the other, but * is inclusive.

As for fucking everyone, I'd rather have sensible configs going forward
rather than mindless backward compatibility, but if that's even an issue
here I don't see it.
