On the contrary I see nor reference saying the 'pattern matching for
pathname expansion can also be used by extension to any strings, but now I
understand it is.
The conditional command is explicit about it:
"When the == and != operators are used, the string to the right
of the operator is considered a pattern and matched according to
the rules described below under Pattern Matching, as if the ext-
glob shell option were enabled."
The `case' command; the pattern substitution, pattern removal, and
case modification word expansions; and variables like EXECIGNORE and
GLOBIGNORE also apply pattern matching to arbitrary strings.
