Thank you for clarifictaion.

Maybe adding an extra clarification to the bash manpage
in the Pattern Matching section would be a good idea?

I can add some clarifying text, but I figure that the since this text
appears in the section describing [...] bracket expressions that it
would have been reasonable to infer that it describes how pattern
matching treats characters between those brackets, and that if the
description of, say, character classes includes additional brackets,
then those are required.
