Is it a simple trailing wildcard? Or rather a period and a wildcard? :-)
Is there a subtle (or not so, for any shell addicts) difference between
"oid.*" (doesn't match oid itself?) and "oid*" (matches oid itself?),
then? Do we allow both or just one of them? And with what semantics?

If we use it just as a flag (not allowing "oid.*.x" and such), then
perhaps let's better make it a flag. "-p" would be my preference, then.
