My thinking for my suggestion was: Under unix tho' "." refers to the
directory node, which is why I thought that if you used "/var/somedir/."
it would be clear(ish) that it referred to the directory precisely
(given you can refer to a directory like that).

The = and ! modifiers are clear in terms of what they do... From my
"external users" perspective, I'd not find a . prefix to be so clear.
Maybe it's worth canvassing some other opinions on which they find
clearer :). I'm not too bothered either way, as if it's documented I can
understand it, just thought I'd explain the thinking behind my
suggestion.
