I am considering making bash glob expansion implement rational range interpretation starting with bash-5.0 -- basically making globasciiranges the default. It looks like glibc is going to do this for version 2.28 (at least for a-z, A-Z, and 0-9), and other GNU utilities have done it for some time. What do folks think?
I am in favor of the idea provided there is a way to change back to what is now the default. Also, the character order may be extended to use C.utf-8 instead of ASCII to have an stable order for all UNICODE characters.
