R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

@antoine: no, my description involves recursion.  It assumes that the path 
portion of the glob specifies the directories to *start* from, but that the 
filename glob portion then applies recursively to any of those start 
directories.

The alternative interpretation of the pattern, that it is fully matched against 
the CWD, takes you back to having to explain what '..' means when matched 
against a given location in the recursion, starting with the CWD.  I clearly 
don't have a good intuition about that.
