We may be getting a wildcard SSL cert shortly, which would allow us
under the licensing terms to use it on as many servers as we wanted.

I currently have Postfix setup to support SSL/TLS using a self-signed
cert.

As mail servers obviously work "hands off" and you don't have human eyes
to notice things such as "self signed cert" warnings, is there actually
any benefit/point in trying (very much a linux novice) to get the
wildcard cert in/running with Postfix?

I believe there are some issues that can be specific to wildcard certs
(Server Alternate Names has cropped up) that can mitigate this, but in
short, is it a good idea or a terrible idea?
