Not the way bash behaves:
In bash:
$ echo {a..j}
a b c d e f g h i j
In zsh:
% echo {a..j}
{a..j}
% setopt braceccl
% echo {a..j}
. a j
That's buggy. And the support for "-" is a bad idea:
% echo {2014-01-08}
0 1 2 4 8
so that one cannot use dates in braces (very useful for svn users).
No problems with bash.
