ADD to draft 3 a new section 18.2.4

18.2.4 Back annotation

When the interfaces are expanded out into individual wires, the ports need
to be given legal identifiers. A synthesis or layout tool shall use the
escaped version of the hierarchical name. For example
        module memMod ( \a.req, \a.gnt, \a.addr, \a.data, \a.mode, \a.start,
\a.rdy, clk);

These names can then be used in an SDF file for back annotation.
