That's why I think those examples are not relevant. dirread semantics
stays intact. globbing semantics should correspond to its definition.
ls -l *.c
and
ls -l
give different results now, without changes. The first form
will list some entries twice. The second form will list each
entry once, with some entries having the same name.
I'm proposing to make the first form bring what it should. Namely,
to bring every entry once. How displaying the first occurence of
a file as many times as there are entries with the same name makes
it similar or consistent with the second form, I really don't get.
They are confusing now. The cause of the confusion is a bug in globbing.
The bug should be fixed.
