The solution of adding manualy the file without using glob will always
add it.

As said in my answer to John this is mainly a design problem where a
choice will be needed between :
- Having no difference in behavior between unix and win32
- Or having difference when needed to be consistent with the OS

The invert is also true, i don't know if "*.*" is used frequently under
unix (i dont think because files without extension are common) but
windows users will (in my opinion) expect thoses two commands to be the
same (Considering that there is no files without extensions inside
some_directory):
bzr add some_directory\
bzr add some_directory\*.*
