Description

Does the `using MyLIb for *;` statement saves that much typing/space as opposed to clearly typing out the intended types?

Research direction

The issue proposes removing catch-all (*) support from Solidity using statements, but names no files, tests, or entry points. First determine where using-statement parsing and validation are implemented, review the existing discussion and tests, and define completion as the syntax being consistently rejected with affected tests updated.
