Nice. What about glob by default?

Cool.

Why not just call it "--regex"?

Glob?

I would prefer a full match, as that would be more consistent with the
syntax that could be used in arguments of comands that can take several
branch names or globs/regexps.

That would not be consistent with the syntax used in commands that can
accept several commands. I regard "browse" essentially as a "ls" in the
branch directory.
