For consistency with the corresponding feature in the glob function since Python 3.5, I would suggest to add an extra optional argument 'recursive' instead of 'glob_asterisks'. With the default recursive=False, one gets the old behavior, with recursive=True, it can handle the '**' and '*' as in pywildcard. I realize that with recursive=False, the behavior is not exactly consistent with glob, but I'd still prefer the same name for the optional argument. It is the common terminology for this type of feature.
