| it could break existing scripts that
Scripts should not be using brace expansion in the first place, it
is useful to save typing for interactive shells, but (whatever quoting
is or is not donw, and whatever ranges are supported)) it is just a lexical
expansion, which can easily be done in the script source, if you want to
assign that 'Z' .. 'a' range to an array, simply list the characters you
want (quoted as needed) and assign them. That causes less problems long
term, and is more likely to be portable to more shells (even shells that
do brace expansion don't all do it in exactly the same way).
