No. Use glob.glob1 if you want a list of files.

AFAIK it's a wanted behavior. The doc says:
"""

os.listdir(path) return a list of file names independently if the path-
argument used is absolute or relative:
>>> os.getcwd()
'/home/user'
>>> os.listdir('Desktop')
['file.py']
>>> os.listdir('/home/user/Desktop')
['file.py']
glob.glob, instead, return file names only if given path is relative:
