Something like this happens in current CVS version (3.1.9-dev-1 +
patches).

bor@itsrm2% ls -1
a 1
a 2
a 3
bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{a\ 1,<CURSOR>a\ 2
                      (no blank between `,' and `a') after TAB
bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{a 1,a\ 2,
                      TAB once more
bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{a 1,a\ 2,
Completing `file'

The completion just after braces work:

bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{<TAB>
bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{a\ 1
Completing file
a\ 1   a\ 2   a\ 3
                     a-a-m-c
bor@itsrm2% ls $PWD/{a\ 1,a\ 2
Completing file
a\ 1   a\ 2   a\ 3

P.S. curly braces are not glob pattern ...
