In GLSL, vector * vector is component-wise
but matrix * vector is not
matrix * matrix is not,
and it feels very natural.
In HLSL, * is always component-wise and you have to use mul(a, b) to use the product... I don't buy it.
Gareth is right, element-wise multiplication for matrices is near to useless, whereas it's handy for vectors.
