It seems to me that zsh completion should work on an argument that has a { without a closing }.
So, tab on
{foo,ba/baz
should produce
{foo,bar}/baz
and if the only two things in the directory are foo and bar, then tab on
{foo,/baz
or
{foo,}/baz
should produce
{foo,bar}/baz

Well, it tries, but what it tries is to complete things that could be
added to the list inside the braces; it does not attempt to figure out
where you meant the closing brace to be, because:
} So, tab on
} {foo,ba/baz

} {foo,bar}/baz
Why? Brace expansions don't care about slashes the way ordinary globs
do. This could just as easily be {foo,ba/baz,etc}.
