 such patterns unchanged if they do not match regardless of the state of
 the nonomatch and nullglob options.

+Numeric ranges are still too greedy with using characters; for example,
+<1-1000>33 will not match 633 because the 633 matches the range.  Some
+backtracking will be necessary.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Matching control can leave the wrong thing in the line.  For example,
+        touch Abc-Def-Ghij.txt
+        touch Abc-def.ghi.jkl_mno.pqr.txt
+        touch Abc_def_ghi_jkl_mno_pqr.txt
+        compctl -M 'm:{a-z}={A-Z} r:|[.,_-]=*'
+        ls a<TAB>
+produces
+        ls Abcdefghi
+which won't complete further.  It seems to get confused over the choice of
+possible punctuation characters, and the string won't complete further.
